HOW TO VOLUNTEER

Thank you for your interest in volunteering to work with Habitat for Humanity Peninsula!  We work hard to eliminate substandard housing on the Peninsula by building and repairing homes for hardworking families.  We can only provide safe, decent, affordable houses to hard-working, low-income families with the help of volunteers like you.  We hope you find working with Habitat for Humanity both fun and rewarding!

LUNCH! If you don't want to break a sweat hammering nails or hanging shingles, consider providing lunch for the volunteers that do. Our construction teams welcome a refreshing lunch break!  Contact Deputy Director LaToya C. Parker at 757-596-5553 x5 or info@habitatpgw.org if you would like to provide lunch.

WE NEED LAND! Volunteers are also needed to help seek out land!  There are many ways to build a Habitat home, but we can't begin to build without land.  A lack of land continues to be our biggest obstacle to reaching our goal of building more safe, decent, affordable homes.  You can help!  If you see or know of ANY land that is for sale, please visit our Land Info Database to provide the location and any other information you can think of.  We'll take it from there!  We have cash & tax credits/deductions available.  Without land, we cannot build!

EVERYONE MUST DOWNLOAD A WAIVER OF LIABILITY BEFORE VOLUNTEERING

To sum it up, you won't hold Habitat for Humanity liable if you hurt yourself while volunteering with us. We DO train you, but accidents do (though rarely) happen when construction is underway! Also, you give us permission to use photos from your volunteer day for marketing purposes, if necessary. Finally, we do not tolerate sexual harassment and ask that you report it immediately. That's it!!

You can download the liability waiver by clicking the appropriate link below.  Please fax (757-591-0455), mail or email your completed to the Habitat office prior to your first day of volunteering.  Also bring a copy of the waiver by the construction site on your volunteer date. If you or a guest is between ages of 16 to 18, please use the liability waiver for minors.
