Donations of Building Materials and Subcontractor ServicesSumter Habitat is always looking for NEW building materials. Used building materials can be donated to our ReStore where they will be sold to the public to generate funding for Habitat houses. In addition, professional services are required on Habitat work sites for masonry, HVAC installation, electrical wiring, plumbing and other services. Sumter Habitat project sponsors can receive credit toward their sponsorship fee by soliciting in-kind donations for materials or subcontractor services typically purchased by Sumter Habitat. To donate, please contact Derek Burress at derek@habitatsumter.org or call (803) 775-5767. Donations of Non-Construction ServicesThe business of building and selling homes requires professional skills that are often generously offered by local donors. Lawyers, accountants, graphic designers, marketing specialists, interior designers and financial counselors have all contributed their time and resources to help us pursue the Habitat mission of eliminating substandard housing. To find out how you can donate your unique skills, please call the Habitat office at (803) 775-5767. |
