Why Help Habitat for Humanity?

If you are an individual or group interested in the Brookings Area Habitat for Humanity experience, that is great!  Habitat for Humanity is an open community, always looking for those interested in joining!

To meet our goal of ending substandard housing, Habitat depends on the energy and time of volunteers for office support, committee work and home construction. We welcome volunteers of all skill levels and interests into our Habitat family. The best value and the most powerful contribution come from the volunteer (skilled in construction or not) who wants to make a difference in the community.

What Can You Do?

Almost anything that interests you! Most of out volunteer positions do not require previous experience.

Committees include family selection, family resources and training, faith relations, public relations, site acquisition and development, youth, and fundraising. Most committees meet regularly (once a month/quarter) and we ask for at least a one year commitment from volunteers interested in serving on a committee. Construction volunteers may serve for one day or make a more long-term commitment. Opportunities are also available for volunteers interested in working in our Brookings office.
