Following four months of extensive review and consideration of alternatives, the Chowan Perquimans Habitat for Humanity (CPH4H) Board of Directors regrets to announce that the ReStore will remain closed.  We recognize the value the store has brought to the Edenton area, and it was only with the support of the community and volunteers that it was able to sustain operations for over 27 years. Unfortunately, operating the ReStore according to current Habitat for Humanity International (HFHI) guidelines with volunteers is no longer attainable.  However, CPH4H will remain an HFHI Affiliate and will focus its efforts on providing safe, affordable, housing to those in need in Chowan and Perquimans County. 

Throughout the past four months the CPH4H Board has reached out to other ReStores as well various other non-profit organizations in the community in an attempt to partner in some way so the store could remain open as a new entity under local guidelines.  To date those discussions have not been successful, however, the CPH4H Board is committed to working with the Edenton Emergency Aid group, a North Carolina unincorporated association, to establish a similar store for the community. 

On behalf of the CPH4H Board we want to say THANK YOU to our customers, volunteers and citizens for your years of support and patience while we negotiated this difficult decision.
