A ReMinder to ReCycle with the ReStore, Cars for Homes

With a single act of recyling, we are one step closer to giving another local family a simple, decent place to live. America Recycles Day (ARD) is November 15th and we are encouraging everyone to perform one simple act of kindess – recycle.

Ready to become more energy efficient? Fuel efficient? Then donate your old appliance and your old car. The Habitat for Humanity of New Castle County ReStore accepts gently used appliances and other household items, including furniture, that could’ve ended up in a landfill. The ReStore resells these items to the public at 50%-90% off of retail. Last year alone, proceeds from the ReStore helped build two more houses.

We also keep our homebuilding program alive with the help from our Cars for Homes program. Simply donate your unwanted vehicle keeps more cars out of the junkyard and more families in homes.

We urge you to tell your friends, neighbors and passersby to join millions of Americans pledging to increase their recycling habits at home and work and to buy products made with recycled materials. Use November 15th as a springboard for change to help build more homes by ReCyling with the ReStore and turning Cars into Homes.
