Toronto Habitat for Humanity stores move online

TORONTO — Habitat for Humanity Greater Toronto has launched an e-Commerce site which reached its first 100 orders this week, in the wake of the temporary closure of its Habitat ReStore locations. ReStore sells donated new and used household items to fund Habitat for Humanity GTA’s administrative costs, freeing up the organization’s cash donations for homebuilding and services to partner families. “We’re so pleased to have quickly adapted to continue serving our customers” said Rob Lee, VP of ReStores. “We’ve developed stringent contact-less pick-up and delivery policies based on Health Canada guidelines, and ensure all distribution location operations are carried out with proper protocols.”
