OUR RESTORE

Support the store that builds homes and hope.

Iowa Heartland Habitat for Humanity ReStore is a nonprofit home improvement store and donation center that sells new and used building supplies and donated home goods ​at discounted prices.

We accept donations from contractors, retailers, and community members. Our store is filled with volunteers and staff receiving and preparing items for sale in the store. They are the friendly faces you see when you check out with your favorite finds.

When you shop, all the proceeds from the ReStore are used to fund Iowa Heartland Habitat for Humanity’s mission to build homes, communities, and hope in Black Hawk, Butler, Bremer, and Buchanan counties. Shopping at the ReStore also diverts tons of material from the landfill each year!

Donate, Shop, or Volunteer at the Restore and make a difference in our community.

Nate Panos - ReStore General Manager
Team Members with Heart 💙

Nate Panos is the General Manager at our Iowa Heartland Habitat for Humanity ReStore. He is in charge of the day-to-day operations of the store. The aspect of Nate’s job that inspires him is collaborating with the community members and seeing people who are eager to give up their free time to volunteer.

Nate also enjoys attending the home dedications and it refuels his motivation to Iowa Heartland Habitat for Humanity’s mission. Our yearly staff tour day is one of his favorites because he loves seeing the hard work everyone puts in.

During his time off of work - Nate can usually be found golfing, bowling, and billiards! Nate is also expecting his first child sometime in October.
