About the Habitat ReStore OC Home Improvement Resale Outlets in Orange County
Habitat for Humanity of Orange County currently operates two Habitat ReStore OC Home Improvement Resale Outlets in Orange County – one in Garden Grove, and one in Santa Ana. The Habitat ReStore OC Home Improvement Resale Outlets are open to the public, and sell new and gently used items at deeply discounted prices. The Habitat ReStores benefit our community by recycling materials instead of dumping them into the waste stream. People or organizations who donate items to the Habitat ReStore avoid paying hauling/trash disposal costs and possibly receive a tax deduction for the items they donate. Proceeds from sales at the Habitat ReStores are used to build more affordable, ownership homes for qualified families in Orange County. For more information, please visit us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/HabitatOCReStore, Twitter at @ReStoresOC, and our website at www.ReStoreOC.org.

About Habitat for Humanity of Orange County
Habitat for Humanity of Orange County is dedicated to ending substandard housing and building strong communities in Orange County.

Mortgage payments are recycled to build more affordable homes in Orange County. Habitat for Humanity families and volunteers have built 174 homes in Orange County since 1988 and are currently building three affordable new homes in Santa Ana.
