There is no party like a ReStore Party! We are celebrating our THIRTIETH Anniversary of our first ReStore opening. Here are some of the tunes that have helped us get our celebration started: 

A lot can happen in 30 years, and at Habitat Wake a lot has happened.  

Last Thursday, over 500 homeowners and advocates joined a public assembly in Southeast Raleigh to show support for a local property tax relief program. This event, hosted by ONE Wake, called on Raleigh City Council and Wake County Commissioners to prioritize property tax relief in next fiscal year’s budget.

It’s Spooky Season! We created a playlist to remind you of all the fun and frights of Halloweens past. Here are a few of our favorite treats from the playlist:

The sound of hammers on nails rang out on Trimble Avenue in Cary last Friday as elected officials came together to build an affordable home with Habitat Wake. Sixteen policymakers from local, state and federal office participated in the 4th annual Elected Officials Build, demonstrating their commitment to affordable housing through policy change and through their own “sweat equity.”

Update: you can find related news coverage of this event on ABC11 and CBS17:

Habitat Wake is grateful for the contributions great, small and everything in between from this incredible community across the globe.

Local elections are around the corner! Are you ready to support affordable housing at the ballot box? 

Ever wondered where furniture goes after it has been donated to the ReStore? It just might end up in the Triangle Parade of Homes!
