Ribbon Cutting Saturday for New Habitat ReStore

NASHUA - The Greater Nashua Habitat for Humanity will open a ReStore on Saturday, April 13.  Hours are from 10 am to 4 pm.  The store is located at 352 Amherst Street, Nashua, NH.  New Hampshire State Senator Peggy Gilmour and Mayor Donnalee Lozeau of Nashua will be participating in the ribbon cutting at 10 a.m.  Sen. Peggy Gilmour will be presenting a citation from Gov. Maggie Hassan. 

The ReStore is a discount home improvement center that sells donated building materials and home goods at reduced prices to the general public, with 100 percent of the profits supporting Habitat for Humanity build projects.

Our Mission

•  To generate income that enables Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashua to create affordable home ownership opportunities in Amherst, Hollis, Hudson, Merrimack, Milford, Nashua, Pelham, Windham, Brookline, Greenville, Lyndeborough, Mason, Mount Vernon and Wilton

• To serve the community by providing quality products at affordable prices

• To preserve our environment by keeping reusable items out of our landfills

Habitat International estimates that for every $1 purchase in a ReStore, 1.3 lbs of waste is kept out of local landfills. 

"We are very excited about the ReStore," said Leah Shuldiner, Executive Director of Greater Nashua Habitat for Humanity.  "The community wins on so many levels.  We provide a place where people can donate goods and receive a tax donation.  People can come and shop for great discounts.  We all work together to keep waste out of landfills, and we help Habitat build and renovate more homes for our area." 

ReStore is currently looking for volunteers and accepting donations of the following items.  Donations can be dropped off at the Amherst Street location, or you can schedule a pick-up by calling 603-943-8980 or emailing restorepickups@nashabitat.org.

Greater Nashua Habitat for Humanity works with people from all walks of life to build and renovate decent houses for affordable home ownership throughout the Greater Nashua-area.  Last year we completed a home in Wilton.  We are currently working on a home in Hudson, and our next project will be in Nashua.  In addition to building homes with partner families, we provide critical home repair work to low income home owners and do renovation projects for area not-for-profits.
