Last but not least, the back deck!

With the dedication ceremony merely weeks away, volunteers and members of the partner families are busy painting and putting the finishing touches on the homes at Shepherd’s Grove. Two of the houses have been painted so far, one is half-way done, and the last two are on track to get painted this coming weekend. Now it’s all about the details; painting the trim, building the rear decks, installing the mail boxes, and cleaning up the interiors to make them move-in ready. The change in the weather has bolstered everyone’s spirits too, and today, workers took advantage of the sunshine to eat lunch outdoors and soak up some rays!

Soon-to-be homeowners Aaron, Trisha, and Amanda break for lunch.

Whirlpool does a lot for South Puget Sound Habitat for Humanity. They donate appliances for our homes, free of charge. On occasion we will get a special gift from them. That gift comes in the donation of appliances for the sole purpose of selling them in our ReStore. As you may know, all proceeds from sales at the ReStore go directly to our building projects. So large donation of appliances can go a long way in our mission to provide housing for the low income.

This past February, Whirlpool made a great donation of ranges and range hoods to the ReStore. These brand new products are marked to half of what they are retail! With such great savings you can win by saving a ton of money during your kitchen remodel all while giving back to Habitat for Humanity. So thank you Whirlpool for continuing to give back year after year. These items will go fast, so hurry down to the store while you can. We are opened EVERYDAY from 9:00 Am – 6:00 PM.
