• Habitat for Humanity ReStore asks donors to stop dropping off unusable furniture (newsbreak.com) — Vienna's Habitat for Humanity ReStore is urging residents to stop leaving torn, stained, or badly damaged furniture at its door, especially after hours, because it can't be sold and costs the store to dispose of. Staff say trash fees and dump trips are diverting money from building homes, and they're asking donors to only bring clean, structurally sound items or haul away unusable pieces themselves.
