Construction Volunteers ~ Help Homeless Children/Families

Save to Favorites

Project Hawai’i, Inc. is a nonprofit organization run 100% by volunteers and solely supported by public donations. Our mission is to help homeless children succeed and escape their cycle of poverty.
We have a very unique project that needs some basic skilled construction volunteers.
This is an amazing opportunity to work with the community and meet new people, new skills, mentor our youth and build a life changing program. Volunteers will be able to utilize their skills and care to help homeless children succeed.
Be part of this amazing project and donate a few hours of your summer to be the super hero our homeless children need.

1. We purchased a home to turn into a duplex to open it up as a transitional housing project for the homeless families to utilize while they get their lives back on track. This home will be used to offer a support hand up and help stop they cycle of homelessness. The project includes rehab work in the kitchen and bath, window replacement and new construction inside walls to turn half the home to a duplex. No outside/new addition work, all within the original walls.
2. We are working with a professional travel agency that has groups travel to make a difference and build homes or work on reconstruction, etc. We will have a group of young adults to help as volunteers as a team to reach out goals.
3. We need volunteers with construction experience, be able to delegate jobs on site, such as painting, measuring, cutting, replacement / tear down, etc. To head/lead the team. We do have a licensed contractor overseeing the site.
4. Volunteers can commit to the whole project or just join for the weekly projects. The groups of youth will change each Monday and will have a new assignment or continue where the last group left off. So, you as a volunteer can work around your schedule, help once or over a week period, or once a week for the 10 weeks, etc.
5. Of course we would prefer to have volunteers sign up to commit to one week Monday-Thurs and work with that group. The volunteer is to be on site at 9a. lunch with group and then end around 3p
6. This project will work towards educational internship, community service, etc.

If you are interested and have construction experience and would like to head up a group of youth, please connect with us. Our project starts end of May and goes to first week in Aug.

SOME VOLUNTEER DUTIES:

1. Organizing volunteers in the morning and getting them set on their work area/tools, etc.
2. Head or Lead a specific job, such as painting, roofing, tiles, building, framing, stairs, carpet, etc.
3. Cook for our volunteer lunches
4. Write letters to obtain support or materials for our programs. Currently we still need WINDOWS, CARPET, PAINT, DOORS, FLOORING, etc.
