Greater Cleveland Habitat for Humanity ReStore accepts donations of tools (hand, power, and yard) appliances (10 years old or less), windows and doors, cabinets, fixtures, sinks, furniture, lumber (6 ft. or longer), and more. All items must be in good, usable condition. Items are cleaned and processed for resale to the general public.

Annually, the Sonnhalter Tool Drive takes place from August 1-31, with over 15 drop-off stations, benefitting Greater Cleveland Habitat for Humanity.
Usable tools and products can be donated to local community service organizations that use the items to support their work. See below for a list of Donation Locations.
