Construct Homes With Us!
NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY!! TRAINING WILL BE PROVIDED ON SITE!! Wednesday-Saturday every week, Habitat for Humanity starts construction on its homes at 7:00am, beginning with orientation and instructions on the daily project. Breaks are taken at 10:00am and noon for lunch. Typically, the workday ends at 3:30pm. Volunteers can stay as long or as little as they wish. Your safety is our most important concern. For this reason, children under 14 are not allowed on Habitat for Humanity work sites.
 
Are you under 18?
If you are younger than 18 years of age (all volunteers must be at least 14), you must print out this Release and Waiver of Liability for Minors form. A parent or legal guardian must sign the form. Bring the form to the job site on the day you volunteer and give it to the Site Supervisor.
