3. Got a student going back to college? While you may first turn to traditional stores to furnish their dorm room, there is an alternative that at the same time supports a good cause.
The Habitat ReStore at 286 South Colony Road, Wallingford, is a great place to shop if you're furnishing a dorm room or apartment! The ReStore carries desks, computer tables, lamps, kitchen and living room furniture, beds, dressers, household items—everything you’ll need to set up your home away from home.
Hours are Tuesday-Saturday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and proceeds from the ReStore are used to build Habitat for Humanity homes in the Greater New Haven area.
