ABOUT US:
Genesis
assists Habitat for Humanity with midcoast ReStore In
October 2006 the Genesis Fund Board of Directors approved
a $100,000 loan to Habitat for Humanity/7 Rivers Maine affiliate
to assist with the purchase of a BIW office building in downtown
Bath. The purchase will allow 7 Rivers Maine to develop a
ReStore retail outlet and provide space for the affiliate
offices. With the Genesis loan and a $350,000 bank loan, 7
Rivers Maine will be able to begin the project. Permanent
funding is expected from the federal Rural Development Community
Facility program in coming months. Founded in 1990 7 Rivers
Maine serves Brunswick, Harpswell and Sagadahoc and Lincoln
Counties. Click here for volunteering and supply donation guidelines for the new ReStore.

Materials
sold by Habitat ReStores are usually donated from building
supply stores, contractors, demolition crews or from individuals
who wish to show their support for Habitat. In addition to
raising funds, ReStores help the environment by rechanneling
good, usable materials into use.
