Description
The goal of this VISTA is to continue to increase revenue for the ReStores through the development of an outreach program for commercial donors and contractors that will generate high-quality items to sell in the ReStores. This source of sustainable, unrestricted income will support the affiliate’s effort to increase the number of homes built each year and help more families achieve homeownership. Project objectives include: develop an enhanced donor communications plan to ensure donor satisfaction, create stronger relations between donors and Habitat ReStore, and build ReStore’s reputation in the community.
