VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
We have a constant need for volunteers in many areas. Due to the tremendous amount of planning, management, fundraising and
more needed to build just one home, we rely on volunteers to partner with our families to help with construction and
day-to-day operations. Volunteer Opportunities include:
On-Site Opportunities: Framing, shingling, hanging drywall, siding, painting, landscaping, running errands, clearing refuse or
providing a meal for hungry volunteers.
|
Please Note:
- We require all construction volunteers sign and submit a Release and Waiver of Liability for each work site and ask all onsite volunteers
to register in advance.
- Wear heavy footwear; no open toed or high heel shoes are allowed on-site.
- Tools are provided but invite you to
bring your own work gloves, measuring tapes, tool belts, hammers
and/or utility knives

Off-Site Opportunities: Participating in special events or fundraising,

communication or church relations.
