Take the Secondhand September Challenge

This September, we’re celebrating Secondhand September, a month dedicated to making a positive impact through sustainable choices.

At Habitat for Humanity Capital Region ReStores, every purchase does more than just save you money - it builds homes, communities, and a greener planet!

🌟 Your ReStore Purchase = Big Impact

Secondhand September: $250 Couch

$250 Couch

When you snag a comfy couch at the Habitat ReStore, you’re doing MORE than upgrading your living room.

Your secondhand purchase also provides a local homeowner with a safe front porch and reduces your carbon footprint by over 0.5 tons. That’s a whole lot of good from just one piece of furniture!

Secondhand September: $100 Dresser

$100 Dresser

When you buy a roomy dresser at the Habitat ReStore, you’re doing more than upping your storage game.

Your secondhand purchase funds a new kitchen sink for a future Habitat homeowner in the Capital Region. Plus, you’re preserving important natural resources for future generations.

Secondhand September: $20 Gallon of Paint

$20 Gallon of Paint

Does a $20 gallon of paint make a difference?

YES! That fresh coat of paint does more than brighten your walls. Spending $20 at the Habitat ReStore funds 40 lbs of nails to help frame a Habitat house. Plus, with our paint’s 95% paint-to-paint recycling rate, you’re buying one of the greenest paint options available!
