Your EPC Mission Team is exploring opportunities to partner with Habitat for Humanity. We'd like to start by asking you all to consider shopping at or donating items to Habitat's home improvement store and donation center "ReStore." The closest location is in Addison, on Route 53 across from The Room Place.
At ReStore, they sell cabinets, appliances, lighting, paint, and gently used furniture at very good prices so people can afford to refresh and update their homes. Your donations and/or purchases help to ensure stable and decent housing for our communities.
