ReStore IS now accepting donated aluminum cans

The ReStore is all about keeping usable items out of the waste stream that goes into the Neal Rd. landfill. And now that we lack a local CRV station, Habitat is offering a way to continue recycling and your donation will support building affordable houses in our community. This is such an easy way to give back.

We invite you to donate your personal aluminum cans, OR join our Recycle Partner Program and start a collection or contest at your place of business, organization, or school. All of the proceeds will benefit the Habitat Rebuilds in Paradise Project.

The Habitat Rebuilds in Paradise Project completed 3 homes this past summer and another 4 will be completed by the end of the year. Of the 7 families, 5 were impacted by the Camp Fire, 7 were previous renters, 5 are single moms, and two have a family member with a disability.
