The Central Westmoreland Habitat for Humanity ReStore is an outlet that accepts donated goods from local retailers, contractors and individuals in our community for resale with a focus on home improvement items such as furniture, home accessories, building materials and appliances.  These donated goods are sold to the general public at a fraction of the retail price to help Central Westmoreland Habitat for Humanity fund the construction of new and refurbished homes for selected partner families within our community.  In addition, the Central Westmoreland Habitat for Humanity ReStore provides an environmentally and socially responsible way to keep good, reusable materials out of the waste stream in Westmoreland County.
