Committees

Construction Committee
Work with our Construction Director to carry out everything needed for new home builds, rehabilitation, and repairs. Consider this an occasion to meet new people while strengthening your community by building safe, affordable housing. You’ll have the ability to improve people's lives, work alongside future Habitat homeowners, learn different skills, and share your skill. In fact, there are numerous benefits when it comes to volunteering. You don't need any experience. Bring your friends, family, co-workers, and neighbors, the more, the merrier!
