Las Vegas, NV – The 13 Connects “Make It Home” campaign has been launched in partnership with Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore to provide affordable home furnishings while supporting community housing initiatives. The campaign, which runs through June 27, is designed to help shoppers save money on home goods while contributing to a meaningful cause.
Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore is located near Sahara Avenue and Decatur Boulevard in Las Vegas.

Among the items available at the ReStore are:
- Sofa chairs priced under $300
- Ceramic garden stools available for $65
- Light fixtures starting as low as $35
Many products found at the ReStore are either brand new or gently used, including donations from local residents and trade shows. To further entice customers, the ReStore is currently offering an additional 50% off everything in the store. As mentioned by the executive director of Habitat for Humanity, couches can be purchased for as little as $50 during the campaign, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious consumers.
Each purchase made at the ReStore plays a vital role in supporting Habitat for Humanity’s mission to build safe and affordable housing in Southern Nevada. The organization is actively working on completing its 124th home in the Las Vegas valley, underscoring its commitment to addressing the local housing crisis. It is noted that every dollar spent at ReStore contributes to further housing initiatives, aiding families in need.
Local residents have expressed their appreciation for the opportunity to save money while supporting a good cause, with many stating that the campaign encourages them to spend more on home goods. The community is also encouraged to donate gently used furniture to ReStore until June 27 to help support ongoing efforts. In addition to furniture donations, monetary contributions can be made by texting “13CONNECTS” to 50155.
Habitat for Humanity Las Vegas is addressing the prevalent housing challenges in Nevada, with numerous families reaching out for assistance. The organization offers various programs, including the Financial Peace Project, A Brush with Kindness, and the Homeownership Program, all aimed at helping families achieve stable housing situations.
Volunteers are welcomed to assist the organization in multiple roles, ranging from construction to administrative support, highlighting the community’s engagement in these vital initiatives. The campaign has garnered partnerships with local businesses, including Findlay Subaru of Las Vegas, Ed Bernstein Injury Lawyers, and America First Credit Union, enhancing community support for the cause.
Recently, Habitat for Humanity hosted a “Women Build” event where volunteers participated in landscaping homes for future homeowners. This event aims to bolster community involvement, and its success has prompted the organization to host it twice this year in Las Vegas, a break from the typical one-time annual event. One of the participants, a future homeowner, expressed gratitude for both the opportunity and the community efforts dedicated to these housing projects. She hopes to move into her home this summer, illustrating the direct impact community contributions have on improving lives.
