UPCOMING VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
-
Tuesdays: Our Build Crew volunteer every Tuesday to work on current build projects! We'd love for you to come help!
CONSTRUCTION
No matter your skill level, there is a place for you at the construction site. We try to work every Tuesday from 7am-3pm but call the office or email Crystal at volunteer@habitatsalinecounty.com to find out where we are building and if there are any changes to our schedule.
Before Volunteering: Along with on-the-site training, we would also like for you to take a brief safety course about how to safely volunteer at our build site! This will help ensure that all volunteers, regardless of prior building experience, stay safe. http://hfhaffiliateinsurance.com/
