• Help with customer service
• Assist with loading merchandise into customer vehicles
• Load and unload donations from vehicles

• Help with exterior work on grounds 

Each of these tasks is crucial for the success of Habitat ReStore, helping to build more Habitat homes in Omaha.

No experience or special skills are required – we’ll provide any training (and tools) you may need for your volunteer day!

ReStore volunteers are required to wear closed toe shoes or boots and weather appropriate clothing. Due to the nature of the work, pants or shorts that hit at the knees or below are recommended.
