Discover New Skills & Serve The Community

Volunteer with us on a construction site, in the ReStore, on a committee or for an event! We accept groups and individuals that want to make a difference. We have something for everyone, regardless of skill level.

By joining us, you join a network of local volunteers that work in all aspects of our organization! Our committees, Board of Directors, Construction Site, and ReStore all rely on volunteers.

Volunteering is a great way to learn new skills, give back to the community, meet new people, or find a new passion!

How to Volunteer

If you are interested in volunteering as a group or individual, please fill out the form above. For Construction, residential construction experience is preferred but we accept all who are willing to learn, can work with their hands, and can be physically active. You can also volunteer at the ReStore, and periodically there are opportunities with Critical Home Repair, our office and doing committee work.

*This is a non-paying priceless position guaranteed to make you smile.
