Here at Kaua'i Habitat we have been so fortunate to be able to continue building homes and hope by utilizing COVID-19 safety precautions.

"We've had some wonderful folks come out over the...
It is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our dear friend and longtime ReStore volunteer Loren Johnson, Sr. who recently lost his battle with cancer. He was 77 years old.
