Volunteer

​Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope

Join us in the fight against poverty, housing and homelessness — lend a hand and your voice today. Individuals or groups of volunteers are welcome. We have many ways for you to get involved!

Habitat provides a fun, easy and engaging volunteer experience for you or your group. 

Join us at our build site to help with construction projects. All skill levels welcome! We build year round and welcome volunteers of all skills and backgrounds. Our construction team is ready to teach, and we want your volunteer experience to be as rewarding and productive.

To coordinate a custom group team-building experience for your business, organization, club, or church, please visit our Volunteer Groups page.

You can volunteer at a Habitat construction site and be part of our mission to provide affordable homeownership to families in Chemung County.
Schedule a time to volunteer at a Habitat build site!

Volunteer tips to make the most of the work day:

  • We can accommodate volunteers of all skill levels.
  • Please wear weather-appropriate clothes you don’t mind getting dirty and closed-toed shoes.
  • Bring a water bottle and snacks.
  • Stay as long as you can, but there is no required amount of time to stay at the build site. We appreciate whatever time you have to offer.
