ReStore Truck Helper
ORGANIZATION: Habitat for Humanity / 7 Rivers Maine
Please visit the new page to apply.
The ReStore is a discount retail outlet for new and gently used building materials, furniture, appliances, and other surplus items donated by individuals, contractors, and businesses. It is staffed mostly by volunteers and generates revenue to fuel the cost of home construction and critical repair and modification projects while providing low-cost materials for the community. The ReStore has also kept more than 4 million pounds of materials out of landfills!
We pick up donated items with our box truck, driven by a paid, part time driver. We are in need of helpers to go with the driver to retrieve donated items. While you must be able to lift 50 lbs., we're mindful of safety and all large items are lifted by two people.
This is a fun position, giving you a chance to see the southern midcoast region and be part of Habitat's important mission. We go out on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays most weeks.

Description
Habitat for Humanity/7 Rivers Maine believes that everyone deserves a decent and healthy place in which to live, learn, and grow. We are a locally run affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, a nonprofit, ecumenical housing organization. Habitat coordinates the labor of volunteers with contributions of money and materials to build modest, affordable housing and renovate family-owned homes in partnership with people in need. Houses are sold to our partner families at no profit and very low interest - "Not a hand-out but a hand-up".
Habitat for Humanity / 7 Rivers Maine also operates a ReStore in Topsham. This retail outlet accepts donations of building supplies, furniture, appliances, and fixtures and then sells these items back to the public at 25-40% off retail price. Monies generated by the ReStore are used to fund our programs.
