ReStore Volunteers!

We are starting an Orientation Pilot Program at the Alexandria ReStore on June 1st, 2026. For those who wish to start volunteering at the Alexandria ReStore, new volunteers who start after June 1st must attend one formal orientation BEFORE signing up for shifts and volunteering. The orientations are meant to provide more clarity and structure for first-time volunteers at the ReStore.

We will hold three formal orientations every week: 12 pm (in person) on Wednesdays, 5 pm (virtual) on Thursdays, and 12 pm (in person) on Saturdays. Orientations will be about 30 minutes long and will count towards your hours. There will be orientations to select on VolunteerHub and volunteers must attend one before volunteering.

Please Note:

Alexandria ReStore volunteers who have already started volunteering before June 1st will be unaffected by this change.

Chantilly ReStore volunteers will be unaffected by this change. If you wish to volunteer at Chantilly, you can just sign up for a shift and will receive an orientation the first day you volunteer.

This is a pilot program, so we will experiment with this format for Alexandria and reassess. Please let Rachel Jones (Rachel.jones@habitatdcnova.org) know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you for volunteering with Habitat DC-NOVA!
