Volunteering

Volunteers are the lifeblood of Habitat for Humanity. Without the donated labor of compassionate individuals, Habitat for Humanity could never build homes at costs affordable to low-income families. With guidance from experienced tradesmen, volunteers perform every step of
the building process, from building the walls to planting the shrubs. No prior construction experience is necessary -
just a desire to help others and a willingness to learn.
