Individual Volunteer Opportunities

Ways to Volunteer with Habitat:

  • ReStore: Volunteer in our Habitat ReStore in such tasks as organizing inventory, cleaning, moving of inventory, and repairing of items. We also invite volunteers who want to help with volunteer recruitment, marketing and advertising, and strategic development of the business. If interested, please contact the ReStore at (734)822-1530.
  • Join a Committee:
    Construction:
    This committee strives to build and renovate houses that are simple, yet of the highest quality and energy standards. The committee is composed of House Leaders and individuals who may or may not work in the construction industry. If interested, please contact Lynne Punnett at lynnep@h4h.org.
    Family Support:
    This committee is made up of members who are assigned to and assist our Partner Families from the time they are accepted into our program and throughout the entire construction process. This is very important in ensuring that each family is successful in their new home.  The assigned committee member then stays in touch with the family for at least one year following closing. During this period, our Family Support Coordinator and the Homeowner's Association members reach out and connect with the family more directly. Committee meetings are held the second Wednesday afternoon of each month. If you are interested in working with Family Support, please, contact Gwynn Sterken at gwynn.sterken@gmail.com
    Development:
    This committee is responsible for raising money to fund the construction or renovation of our families' homes. We partner with other agencies, businesses, organizations, faith-based groups and many individuals to accomplish our goal.  If interested, please, contact Theresa Finney-Dumais at theresafd@h4h.org.
    Family Selection:
    This committee works with families that want to purchase a Habitat home and apply for Habitat's zero-interest mortgage.  Committee members reach out into the community, as well as review and recommend qualified applicants to the Board of Directors.  We ask that interested individuals please make a minimum one year commitment to the committee.  Meetings are typically held the third Wednesday of the month.
    If you are interested or would like more information, please, contact Joe Slowins at jslowins@comcast.net.
    Site Selection/Development:
    This committee is responsible for finding and acquiring building sites and pre-owned homes that can be renovated, as well as moving multi-development projects through the planning process.  Most members have some familiarity with land acquisition, architecture, real estate practices, construction planning, or development.  This committee is NOT CURRENTLY ACTIVE; however, we are always interested in working with individuals who have these skills.  If you are interested, please, contact Sarah Teare at steare@h4h.org.
