History

The Habitat Store Charlottesville has a rich history deeply intertwined with the Charlottesville community’s commitment to affordable housing.

Established in 1969, the store began as a small, volunteer-run operation driven by the Charlottesville Habitat for Humanity’s mission to build decent, affordable homes for families in need.

Initially, the store’s primary focus was accepting donated building materials – lumber, windows, doors, and fixtures – that could be used in these construction projects.

Over the years, the store expanded its offerings to include household goods, furniture, and clothing, all donated by local residents and businesses.

This expansion allowed The Habitat Store to generate revenue to support the organization’s building programs.

The store’s success is a direct result of the generosity of the Charlottesville community and its unwavering dedication to providing opportunities for families to own their own homes.

Today, The Habitat Store remains a vital part of the Charlottesville Habitat for Humanity’s operations, continuing to accept donations and offering unique, gently-used items at deeply discounted prices.
