Thank you for building a better world with us!
What you need to know for a great day on the construction site:
- Please arrive 10 minutes before your scheduled shift to confirm registration and safety orientation. Meet at the trailer and let staff know if this is your first time volunteering with us.
- **Bring a refillable water bottle, wear closed-toe shoes, and dress for the weather**
- Work boots are ideal, but not required.
- Water and snacks are provided and are located at the trailer.
- If it's especially hot you're welcome to bring other items to help keep you cool and comfortable! Personal fans, misting bottles, cooling towels, etc.
- Shift start and end times may vary based on group participation and weather.
- If the construction site is closed due to weather or other factors, an email will be sent to the volunteers who have signed up for that date as soon as the decision is made.
- We break for lunch from 11:30-12. Lunch is not provided, but it will be noted on the schedule if there is an exception that day. Please pack a lunch or plan to get lunch within that 30 minute break if you are volunteering a full day with us.
- All tools and safety equipment are provided.
- You are welcome to bring your own tool belt, safety glasses, or gloves if you prefer. Please note that we cannot be responsible if personal items are lost or damaged.
We can't wait to see you out there!
Thank you again for volunteering with Habitat for Humanity!
