The Habitat Home Centers are home improvement thrift stores wholly owned by Habitat for Humanity of San Antonio. Our two San Antonio store locations sell both new and used home improvement materials to the public. All proceeds from sales in these stores fund the administration costs of Habitat for Humanity of San Antonio. This means that 100 % of every dollar donated to HFHSA goes directly into our homebuilding program. Full-scale models of a three bedroom Habitat for Humanity home are featured in both locations.

We accept donations from individuals and organizations in order to stock the Home Center. Donations are tax-exempt to the extent allowable by law. Customers can feel good about shopping at The Home Center; it is a great way to reuse materials in San Antonio’s building stock that might have been thrown away. Additionally, customers are able to buy good home improvement materials below normal retail prices while supporting Habitat for Humanity of San Antonio.

Materials that are commonly available in the Home Centers are doors, windows, tile, cabinets, light fixtures and paints. Both locations sell liquidation merchandise, which are goods that have been purchased from liquidators and other sources, and are resold at discounts over retail.
