The Habitat for Humanity is now open on Sundays
The Habitat for Humanity ReStore charity shop in Henderson is now open on Sundays from 9am to 3pm!
This means that we are available 7 days a week for shopping and receiving donations. If you’re looking for a deal or would like to make a donation of pre-loved furniture, clothing or home appliances; come visit us today at 7 Dora Street.
Our mission at Habitat is to provide local Kiwi families with strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter.
You can make a difference today as every donation and sale at the ReStore charity shop goes towards supporting local Kiwi families in housing need.

The gift of giving …?
The author of “The Gift of the Magi” is O. Henry, a pseudonym for William Sydney Porter.
“The Gift of the Magi” is a poignant short story about a young couple, Jim and Della, who are deeply in love but financially struggling. With Christmas approaching and limited money, each decides to sacrifice their most prized possession to buy a meaningful gift for the other. Della sells her beautiful long hair to buy a platinum chain for Jim’s watch, while Jim sells his grandfather’s watch to buy a set of combs for Della’s hair. In the end, their love and sacrifice underscore the true spirit of giving during the holiday season.

I would say the story underscores the stupidity of Xmas gifts … after all, it is not YOUR birthday, so how about donating something to good causes and otherwise enjoying being together?
