About this opportunity

Habitat for Humanity chapters nationwide run regular build days open to volunteers with no prior construction experience. Crew chiefs walk you through every task.

What to expect

• Shifts typically run 7 a.m.–3 p.m. on weekdays and Saturdays
• Bring close-toed shoes, water, and sunscreen — tools and lunch are often provided
• Build sites are indoors and outdoors depending on the project phase
