We're sponsoring a unique volunteer opportunity to build the frame of a Habitat home together. We hope you'll join us!
Volunteers will learn about Habitat for Humanity, hear from a future Habitat homeowner, and swing a hammer. No construction experience is necessary, and Habitat will provide all tools, equipment, and training. The minimum age to volunteer is 14 years old.
Shifts Available - NEW TIME
- 9:00 am - 11:00 am - Building Shift
Shift volunteers will assist with constructing the frame walls for the home - nailing lumber and moving wall panels.
To Sign Up
Each person will need to sign-up individually online. Anyone ages 14-17 will receive a link (in their confirmation email) to the Habitat for Humanity consent form. They will need to bring a signed, hard copy with them in order to participate.
