Habitat for Humanity Tool, Hardware and Home Goods Sale

Habitat for Humanity Ozaukee is excited to announce their “Spring Tool, Hardware and Home
Goods Overstock Sale” being held Friday May 19th from 9-4pm and Saturday May 20th from9-
3pm at the Ozaukee Nonprofit Center, 2360 Dakota Drive, in Grafton.

Volunteers have been very busy organizing and pricing brand new merchandise that has been
graciously donated by Ace Hardware in Grafton and other donors, as well as some used tools
from supporters of HFHOZ. In addition to electrical, painting, plumbing supplies and tools, there
will also be a selection of home goods and yard care items including a very gently used chipper.
This will be a one of a kind event for the local Habitat affiliate.

The event is being sponsored by Mel’s Charities and Turnhall Financial Group of Thrivent who
have covered the cost of the event space so that you can come and shop indoors and not worry
about the weather outside.

All funds raised from this event will help fund Habitat for Humanity Ozaukee’s next build slated
to start next fall in Port Washington. HFHOZ needs to raise about $175,000 to start their next
home. If you cannot make it to the sale or would like to help HFHOZ keep building, donations
can be sent to Habitat for Humanity Ozaukee, 2360 Dakota Drive, Grafton WI 53024, or donate
online at www.ozhh.org, or you can bring along your donation to the event.
While HFHOZ is working to raise funds for their next build, they are focusing on Home
Preservation Program projects (formerly called A Brush With Kindness). Through this program,
HFHOZ performs repair projects meant to keep families in safe living conditions. Handrails,
wheelchair ramps, and grab bars are common items to install, helping with accessibility and
safety. Occasional projects include painting, soffit and fascia repair, roof leak repair, and
emergency HVAC repair (done by professionals) for income challenged clients.

Habitat for Humanity International also encourages affiliates like HFHOZ to help qualified
families/individuals with aging in place repairs and modifications. If you or someone you know
might be interested in learning more about the HFHOZ Home Preservation program please have
