This spring-cleaning season, residents in Cumberland County can give their gently used goods a second life and help reduce waste in landfills by donating excess household items to Cumberland County Habitat for Humanity, ReStore in Vineland. Habitat ReStore accepts items ranging from appliances and building products to furniture, home goods and household fixtures such as lighting and cabinets.
“Every item donated and sold at our Vineland Habitat ReStore plays a vital role in improving lives of families in need of better housing,” said Stephanie Garay, Vineland Habitat ReStore manager. “We have helped individuals within our community, and with the support of loyal donors and shoppers, we will continue to generate additional proceeds to further our mission.”
