Robert Molendyk is good with his hands. He always has been; growing
up in a farming community in Southwest Montana, he had to be.

Now retired, Robert donates those skilled hands two days a week –
every week – to the Habitat for Humanity of Greater Miami ReStore.

As a boy, he helped fix farm equipment and machinery, and repaired
old buildings.  As a young adult, Robert used his fix-it skills to pay
his way through high school and college.  Now he is the Miami
ReStore’s go-to handyman, repairing everything from donated
furniture to the ReStore itself. Read More

Habitat!
