Calling all crafters, painters or anyone who wants to try at the craft, we now carry paint at the ReStore! Dixie Belle Paint company is a small women owned business that make all of their products in small handcrafted batches, all in the USA, at affordable prices. We carry chalk paints, metallic paints, stains, waxes, even paint scrub to help clean those stubborn paint smudges. Each product is carefully crafted for beauty, usability and affordability.
My vision is for all to enjoy the excitement & therapy painting can bring without the need to break the bank. Dixie Belle Paint is a family-owned and operated company right here in the good ol' USA! Built on American values and true Southern Hospitality. I hope you will enjoy working with all our Dixie Belle Products!"

Since 1994 Cheboygan County Habitat has worked tirelessly to give qualified families a hand up, not a hand out, towards a better future. Program Partners go through education on finances and upkeep on their homes along with contributing sweat equity hours on other projects to help other local families. Volunteers are given unique opportunities to give back to our community through assisting at the ReStore to process donations, or out on the jobsite to swing a hammer, even helping during events that Habitat attends throughout the year. Our ReStore accepts donated furniture and other household goods that are sold for affordable prices so everyone can shop here regardless of income or class.
Our most recent projects are two builds in Indian River that have come such a long way in a short amount of time. Both houses have drywall up and are being painted in beautiful colors that our program partners picked out themselves! Volunteers, alongside Shannon and Bruce Hypio, and Jes Bunker, worked hard on November 8th to paint these blank canvases. With lots more work ahead of us and the chill setting in we are excited to get these homes finished! If you would like to support these projects and our mission you can find links below to our website, volunteer opportunities, and our donation portal.

We all have been working tirelessly hand in hand to eliminate unsafe, unaffordable housing in our community. As a thank you, we would like to announce our Volunteer of the Year and our Corporate Partner of the Year for 2023.
Darrin now serves as our Board President but held the Treasurer position previously. He took on the role as Board Development Chair and has helped increase our board member by 4 members and even took the lead on creating a board orientation for new members. Trisha serves on our Event Committee, but really, she is helping wherever we need a helping hand. She will make and bring lunch to the jobsite, help with home cleanings, event planning and set up, solicitation of committee members and auction items and so much more. Straits Area Federal Credit Union has been supporting Cheboygan County Habitat for Humanity for many years through financial donations, sponsorships and more recently sending volunteer groups out to build with us on the jobsite. This continued partnership will soon include working with the Credit Union on financial coaching and educational courses to help strengthen the community members and in turn the community we live and work.
The continued support from the Credit Union has made a huge impact in the work we are doing and they have gotten to see firsthand how our mission works in action. They are actively working with Cheboygan Habitat to further our mission and the work we are doing throughout Cheboygan County.
