JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Interline Brands Inc. announced today that, together with over 125 of its vendor partners, it has donated more than $40,000 in maintenance, repair, and operations products to Habitat for Humanity of Jacksonville Inc. (HabiJax). The donation consisted of hundreds of faucets, plumbing fittings, bathroom fixtures, HVAC equipment, electrical products, tools, cleaning supplies, and light fixtures.

The products will be sold at the HabiJax ReStore, a 38,000-square-foot home improvement retail outlet.
