Volunteering in Romania: Habitat Yuba Sutter Builds Abroad

In July 2025, seven volunteers from Habitat for Humanity Yuba-Sutter traveled over 6,500 miles to Comănești, Romania. What began as a long-haul flight turned into a life-changing week of building, bonding, and seeing firsthand the global reach of Habitat’s mission.

They helped construct a home for four families, worked side by side with partner families, and spent long days lifting roof tiles and hammering through language barriers. The team returned home not just with sore muscles, but with a deeper understanding of resilience, community, and what it truly means to build hope.

From sprinting through Munich to sharing cake with Habitat Romania staff, this journey was anything but ordinary.

Support the Mission of Affordable Housing

Every day, families and individuals in our community face unstable housing or homelessness. Your support helps make a real difference.

When you give to Habitat for Humanity Yuba/Sutter, you help provide safe, stable housing opportunities for people in need. Your donation supports critical programs that connect individuals facing homelessness with affordable housing, and families working toward the dream of homeownership.

Every contribution builds more than homes. It builds hope, stability, and second chances for those who need them most.

EV Chargers Go Live at the ReStore

We’re thrilled to announce that new electric vehicle (EV) charging stations have been installed at the Habitat ReStore at 202 D Street in Marysville, and they’re officially open to the public!

To celebrate this sustainable step forward, we invite you to join us for a ribbon cutting ceremony on Wednesday, August 14 at 5:30 PM, right here at the ReStore. This project was made possible thanks to the generous support of the Rotary Club of Marysville, with additional coordination from Feather River Air Quality Management District (FRAQMD) and PG&E.

As an EV driver herself, DeDe Cordell of the Rotary Club of Marysville said it best: “This location is a great place for EV drivers to park and explore our downtown area. It supports the growth of clean-air vehicles in the region and offers a lower-cost driving option during a time of rising fuel prices.”

These new chargers aren’t just about powering vehicles, they’re about powering community progress. By offering convenient on-site charging, we’re encouraging foot traffic downtown, supporting sustainability, and continuing to fund affordable housing with every ReStore purchase.

Come plug in, shop for a cause, and celebrate this exciting addition to our city!
