Habitat For Humanity Lansing offers volunteer opportunities for you to help with all aspects of home building and in our ReStore.  We have both construction and non-construction volunteer opportunities available to you. You do not need to be an expert in construction to help out on a work site. There are many tasks that require only a willingness to learn and work with others. On-site construction work is the most popular of Habitat's volunteer opportunities. We make every effort to incorporate all willing volunteers regardless of skill level. Unaccompanied minors are not allowed on the job site. Those under 18 years of age must contact the office for further information. We will work rain or shine!

Our typical Tuesday and Thursday morning crews are from 9am - noon and evening crews are from 6:00 - 9:00pm.   We do hope you will join us when you can by signing up on our online calendar.

Some individual needs:

2. Someone to shadow a Brundi family as they do their sweat equity.  The need here is for translation and encouragement.

If you have a group of volunteers, your group should contact the Volunteer Coordinator and we can arrange to come to your location for an in-person group orientation for groups over 15.

We use the information you provide in the Registration to help determine where your skill would best help us, or to provide you with information on available volunteer opportunities so you can choose where you would like to help out.
