Our affiliate, Macomb County Habitat for Humanity, is not closing! 

While Detroit Habitat for Humanity, our neighboring affiliate and friend, has closed their stores until they reopen at some point in the future, we still have two viable stores. 

But….one of our stores will be relocating so that we can move to a new store in Shelby!

In January, we welcomed a new employee to our team. Edward Fagan, ReStore Manager, is responsible for overseeing the entire ReStore Department at Macomb County Habitat for Humanity.

Over the last six years, Edward owned and managed his own Sprint store, and before that he was a store Manager at Big Lots for 8 years. Edward is an expert in training and motivating employees, is familiar with ever-changing inventory, and excels in customer service. 

In his first few weeks, he has already proven himself very effective and we look forward to having his expertise and enthusiasm in both of our ReStores. 

Good luck Edward, and welcome to the team at Habitat!

Our largest need for volunteers in February will be at our Mount Clemens ReStore, as we begin to move the ReStore to a new location in Shelby Township. Help us organize, move household goods and take apart fixtures, to be ready to begin the moving process. A third of our operating income comes from our ReStores, so they are vital to our work in Macomb County.

The Warren ReStore hosts a flash sale every Friday from 3 - 6pm on various items. The Warren ReStore is located at 23211 Van Dyke (north of 9 Mile).

The Mt. Clemens ReStore's clearance sale continue in preparation for the big move to Shelby Township. Everything in store is 7 5% off and the last day to shop at the Groesbeck location will be Saturday, February 18! Visit the Mt. Clemens ReStore at 130 N Groesbeck Hwy (north of Cass Ave).

Turn on your dryer, go outside, and check to see if the hot air is making its way outside. You can easily check this in the winter when the air is cold.

The warm air will be clearly visible and should appear like fog. 

Why should this be part of home maintenance? It’s unsafe for the exhaust to be clogged or blocked.

A clogged exhaust can cause the dryer to overheat or cause a fire.

Birds and mice love dryer vents because of the warmth it provides and it’s a great place for them to nest.

This is the perfect time of year to inspect your vent in order to keep your family safe.
