Volunteering is a great way to give back to our community and make a difference in the life of a partner family. Opportunities on our Dillon Valley site have concluded, but we anticipate new opportunities at other sites by late 2021.

Frequently Asked Questions
What will a typical workday look like on a construction site?
On your volunteer day, you will sign-in on arrival at the site. Then, our staff will provide a short overview of Habitat give a safety orientation. Please note that safety is very important to us and your presence at the safety orientation is mandatory.
After orientation, supervisors will break the group into smaller teams, if necessary, and teach everyone the tasks for the day. If there is ever anything you are asked to do that you are uncomfortable with, the supervisor will be happy to help you get comfortable with the task or find another task for you.
We are grateful for you and want you to enjoy yourselves.
What is the time commitment required?
All volunteers are asked to commit to the full workday from 9am – 4 pm on our Construction sites.
What days of the week can I work?
This will depend on the overall construction schedule and tasks. There will be both weekday and weekend workdays which will be listed on the registration page of this website when workdays are finalized.
Our Restore location is open Tuesday-Saturday’s excluding holidays.
Is there an age requirement?
Yes. on construction sites, all volunteers must be at least 16 years old. 16 and 17-year-old volunteers are not allowed to be on high ladders or to use power tools and must be accompanied by an adult.
