Construction Volunteers

We need the help of volunteers like you to help us make the dream of decent, affordable housing a reality for all our neighbors in Omaha!

TASKS:

We use our volunteers for just about every aspect of the build from framing, and siding, to finishing and cleaning up - so it’s best to register with a big heart and open mind. Generally speaking, your entire build site will have one main task for the day and it will be indicated in the "Additional Event Details" section at least two days prior to your volunteer date.

SKILL REQUIREMENTS:

No tools or experience are necessary, our supervisors will be happy to train everyone on the tasks of the day.

DRESS CODE:

Please wear closed toe shoes/weather-appropriate clothing. Remember this is an active construction site when choosing your attire.

AGE RESTRICTIONS:

Volunteers must be at least 16 years of age. Volunteers between 16 and 18 years of age will have restricted use of tools and other equipment.

WHAT WE’LL PROVIDE:

We’ll provide personal protection equipment (Hardhats, glasses, earplugs, gloves, etc.), the necessary tools, skilled staff to train you, and a safe build site.

WHAT TO BRING:

Please bring a reusable water bottle so that you can fill up at our water station as needed. There will also be a lunch break during the day (usually around noon), we do not provide lunch so please bring your own lunch or you may leave the site to go out for lunch.

About Habitat for Humanity of Omaha

Location:

1701 North 24th Street, Omaha, NE 68110, US

Mission Statement

Seeking to put God’s love into action, Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope

Description

No matter who we are or where we come from, we all deserve to have a decent life, to feel strong and stable, and to know we have the power to take care of ourselves and build our own futures.

To address the need for quality housing in our community, Habitat for Humanity of Omaha builds and renovates homes, repairs
existing houses, takes down blighted structures and advocates for better laws and systems. We work with families to help them
acquire the access, skills and financial education necessary to become successful homeowners. Since 1984, Habitat Omaha has
partnered with more than 1,600 families in our community to provide affordable homeownership and home improvement
opportunities. Thousands of donors and volunteers have worked together with future homeowners to make these opportunities
a reality, building stronger neighborhoods and effecting measurable change in the community. Habitat Omaha has revitalized
properties with very little taxable value, resulting in approximately $524,000 in property taxes paid by Habitat Omaha
homeowners in 2018.
