The first Habitat affiliate in Ontario was founded in Waterloo Region in 1987 and the Toronto affiliate has been in existence for 24 years, with almost three dozen affiliates in all across the province. Their mandate is to mobilize volunteers and community partners to build affordable housing and promote homeownership as a means to break the cycle of poverty… Habitat will… expand its ReStore program, which provides important funding for the organization by selling used or discontinued items that have been donated to Habitat, such as plumbing fixtures, cabinets, windows, etc.
