How To Help
Donate
Our ability to construct new homes and repair existing homes in Macon and Jackson NC counties is driven from a strong relationship with individuals, faith communities, businesses, civic organizations, community groups, and foundations.
Our Restores provide a substantial stream of revenue in meeting these needs. Individuals and businesses that have been faithful in donating items for Resale and our customers who continue to shop our Restores are a key factor in our success.
There are many ways you can financially contribute that will change the lives of local families and improve our community at large.
Your gift and your patronage at our two Restore locations is important! Your contribution will help us build new houses and preserve existing homes, ensuring more families have safe and decent housing.
