Volunteers are the backbone of Habitat for Humanity. On a good day with plenty of volunteers, we get more done than an average experienced work crew. That's why we encourage everybody to get involved, no matter what your level of experience. Old and young alike can benefit from the skills learned in one day at our construction site.
If you are interested in volunteering individually, or if you are part of an organization that would like to volunteer as a group, please call Construction Manager Gabriela Rife at (919) 650-8090. Everybody is welcome; no experience is necessary - just a good attitude and a willingness to help!

Volunteering on the construction site is a fun, sociable way to help a family realize their dream of
home ownership.
