Beginnings

I have been working with Habitat for Humanity for the last two years.

My Spring Junior Year I had to do a volunteer class, so I started volunteering at the local Habitat for Humanity and the Hospice of West Alabama. Both just needed a secretary, so I offered to help.

At Habitat I would do odd jobs including painting, organizing, and helping out with mail outs. After the Spring Semester they offered me a job working in their ReStore. I didn't even know that there was a store attached to the building! The ReStore is a store open to the public that sells construction items, home decor, appliances, all at half retail price. And 100% of the proceeds go to Habitat. It is a wonderful ministry.

I began working there as the cashier, and then they promoted me to the manager by August. I loved it. I have been working at the Tuscaloosa ReStore for two years and I have loved every inch of it.

We use to be located in a huge tin building on McFarland, but we recently moved to 15th Street near the practice football feild (behind Sharks Restaurant). We love it! But it is not very well seen from the road. So we need your help!

Tell people all over tuscaloosa about us and help us make the new store a success! Here is our info! Follow us on facebook and Twitter!!!
