Do you know the difference between something that’s simply old and something that might be worth a little more?

We could use your expertise at the Itasca County ReStore.

We’re looking for an antique enthusiast to volunteer an hour or two each week helping our team identify, research and appropriately value vintage and antique donations.

The ReStore is a thrift store, and we want to keep great finds affordable for our shoppers. But making sure unique donated items are appropriately valued also helps us make the most of every generous donation. ReStore proceeds support Itasca County Habitat for Humanity’s work building and improving homes in our community.

If antique shops, estate sales and figuring out exactly what that mysterious thing in Grandma’s attic actually is sound like your idea of fun, we’d love to hear from you.

This fall, Itasca County will be the first stop on a nationwide Habitat for Humanity service journey for a team of AmeriCorps members coming to us from out of state.

We'd like to make sure they get a warm northern Minnesota welcome!

From September 17 through October 23, the crew will be working alongside Itasca County Habitat for Humanity before continuing on to serve with other Habitat affiliates across the country. We're looking for individuals, families, businesses, churches and community groups willing to provide lunch for the team on one of their workdays.

Each lunch will serve approximately 15 people, and it doesn't need to be elaborate. Sandwiches, pizza, soup, hotdish or another simple meal would be greatly appreciated.

Several lunches are already covered, but we still have dates available. Providing a meal is an easy way to welcome these volunteers to our community and thank them for choosing to spend part of their service journey right here in Itasca County.

Interested in providing a lunch?

Contact Art to find an available date: 218-999-9001 or 218-999-7973

Help us send them on to their next community with a great first impression of northern Minnesota.
