The Building Materials Resource Center is a nonprofit building materials re-use project. The BMRC accepts donations of good quality new and used building materials and distributes them, for a very modest fee, to low and moderate-income homeowners and nonprofits. The BMRC also offers valuable homeowner support services, including in-home technical assistance, educational workshops, and a semi-monthly window and screen repair clinic.
The mission of the BMRC is twofold: (1) To provide lower income homeowners with the materials and assistance they need to be successful, long-term homeowners, allowing them to achieve a higher level of economic independence, build their wealth, and improve their lives; and (2) To reduce the construction industry's burden on the waste stream by diverting perfectly good materials from landfills and delivering them into the hands of needy homeowners and nonprofits.
