Mary Bounvassana lives with her two children Jeremias, 12, and Alicia, 10. Mary is a single mom and works as a bank teller. They live in a two-bedroom apartment that is poorly insulated, with an extensive mold problem which has caused both of her children asthma. The bathroom sink, bathtub, and toilet all get clogged due to poor plumbing. Mary and her children would love to move into a new house where they could all have separate rooms and a safe area to play. Habitat seeking a highly organized and motivated ReStore Manager
Portland Habitat for Humanity ReStore, Portland Oregon
The Portland ReStore is one of two stores operated collaboratively by the Habitat for Humanity (Habitat) affiliates of the Portland/Vancouver metro areas. These stores are part of a fast growing nationwide collective of Habitat ReStores. ReStores raise funds for Habitat for Humanity by collecting donated building materials, appliances, furniture and other home improvement products and selling these items to the public at prices well below retail.
The Portland ReStore is seeking a highly organized and motivated ReStore Manager to run the day-to-day operations. The Portland store is a 30,000 square foot retail warehouse run by a small staff and dozens of dedicated volunteers. It has operated for over 8 years and is currently in a phase of tremendous growth.
