The Habitat for Humanity ReStore, known for its variety of home improvement products and donations, is expanding its location off Jamestown Road starting next week.

“The increase size on the ReStore will allow us to serve people in our community,” said Janet V. Green, CEO for the Habitat for Humanity Peninsula and Greater Williamsburg.

Green added the money from the ReStore helps build houses for people with low income. Read more about the Habitat for Humanity homebuyer program here.

The new building lease starts May 1 and the store will spend anywhere from 30 to 60 days preparing it for the public, Green said.
