Habitat for Humanity Warehouse to Open More Days
Calaveras County, CA....Beginning March 25 through May 1 the Habitat for Humanity Calaveras Warehouse will be open every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, in addition to the usual first and third Saturdays of each month. The Warehouse is a discount building materials reuse outlet store at 172 California St., San Andreas. The Warehouse will be open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m Wednesdays through Fridays for a six week trial period and as usual from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. the first and third Saturdays of each month....
Shoppers will receive 25 to 75% discounts on building materials, light fixtures, paint, appliances and furniture. Home improvements are made more affordable by shopping at the Warehouse and at the same time all shoppers are helping support affordable housing in Calaveras County.
Some of the donated material is used to build Habitat for Humanity houses. The rest is sold to the public at 25 to 75% off the retail price with proceeds going to Habitat for Humanity Calaveras to build homes in partnership with local low income families.
Items at the Warehouse are donated items from individuals, businesses and organizations in the community. “These in-kind donations help divert waste from area landfills, often qualifying as tax deductible gifts for donors,” said Lucy Thein, President of the Board of Directors of Habitat for Humanity Calaveras.
To donate items please call Lucy Thein at 754-1518. Habitat for Humanity Calaveras will accept the following new or gently used items: appliances in working condition, double pane windows, cabinets, doors, lumber, flooring, plumbing, hardware, light fixtures, new unopened containers of paint, tools, carpet in new condition, and furniture. Tile and flooring must be at least 25 square feet.
Items not accepted are: clothing, mattresses, used mini blinds, wood windows, single pane windows, TVs, appliances older than 10 years, obsolete computers and other electronic items, soiled or damaged furniture, and used paint or stain.
