Sussex County Habitat for Humanity is offering several avenues for citizens to take part in America Recycles Day and help the environment, themselves and their neighbors. Among the ideas is pick-up service for citizens who wish to donate gently used appliances, cabinets, furniture and building materials to Habitat’s ReStore.

“This concept benefits everyone concerned,” said Denise Jackson, ReStore manager. ReStore sells donated new and gently used appliances, cabinets, furniture, doors and windows from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesday through Friday and from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday. Sussex County Habitat for Humanity operates ReStore to help with funding for more Habitat homes. The profits go directly to Habitat’s mission of building simple, decent and affordable homes in partnership with Sussex County families.

Another program offered by Habitat for Humanity is Cars for Homes, which is a vehicle donation program that helps fund homes. It is possible to donate a car, truck, boat, RV, motorcycle or construction vehicle by calling 877-277-4344 or by going online to carsforhomes.org. Again, a tax deduction is likely, but donors should check with their tax adviser or the Internal Revenue Service.
