Benjamin Perlin of Nashville, Tennessee, works at a Habitat for Humanity Restore, a charity shop that sells used furniture and building materials at low prices. The charity, which Benjamin Perlin helps by performing tasks like unloading and sorting donations and providing customer service in the shop, assists the Nashville community in many ways. In providing a deconstruction team to remove materials from homes being remodeled at no charge to donators, Habitat for Humanity saves homeowners money on the removal process and provides affordable appliances to less fortunate community members. The store’s profits are used to fund the organization and the building of new Habitat for Humanity houses. Other volunteer work Perlin regularly participates in includes his work at the Tennessee State Veterans Home in Murfreesboro. His job is to provide company to the veterans and lend an ear to those wishing to tell their stories. He also entertains veterans by playing games like poker and blackjack with them. Additionally, Benjamin Perlin has volunteered at his local Second Harvest Food Bank as a sorter.
