<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SBSVC, post: 2598799, member: 136&quot;]Welcome, Terence! Please don&#039;t let one off-base and perhaps uninformed&nbsp; comment ruin your experience here! This tends to be a &quot;safe&quot;, friendly sort of place, and I&#039;m sorry you met with a sour opinion.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have long been a HUGE supporter of Habitat for Humanity and knew many individuals and families in my old locale in CT who worked on and even lived in Habitat homes.</p><p><br /></p><p>We often had &quot;extra&quot; kids living with us in our home when my own kids were growing up, and one of them, a young teenaged girl, stayed with us for 9 months until her own family&#039;s Habitat home was ready. These were families who never could have owned their own homes otherwise. It was always a joy to see.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I lost a sister several years ago, I donated almost all of her household possessions to Habitat, including everything from furniture to kitchenware to artwork and decorative home items. From what I heard, her stuff quite literally flew off the floor &amp; the shelves of our local Restore. It made me happy that others could enjoy and use her things. I certainly did not need it, even though I had purchased much of it for her.</p><p><br /></p><p>A couple of years after that, when my husband and I moved from CT,&nbsp; we donated almost half a house&#039;s worth of furniture to Habitat. Bookcases galore (many of which the store ended up keeping to display their own merchandise) as well as beds, chairs, light fixtures, and much more. They were thrilled to have it all, and again, I was thrilled that others could use it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Keep up the great work, Terence. You DO have supporters![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
