Come build a better world with us at the Greater Lynchburg Habitat for Humanity construction site on January 22 & 23, partnering with other volunteers as part of Martin Luther King, Jr Day's National Day of Service.

We are currently working on a home for a local family named The Tribute Home. This home was inspired by the heartfelt proposal from the family of Chris Irvine, our beloved construction manager who passed away in 2021, and we are building to honor his memory and the memory of all Habitat volunteers who left behind an incredible legacy of service to Habitat and our community.

What you need to know:

  • 9am-3pm with lunch from 11:30-12
  • No experience or special skills needed! Our construction professionals and skilled volunteers will train you on anything you need to know!
  • We provide coffee, snacks, and water on site for refreshments.
  • All tools and safety gear are provided
  • Dress for the weather and be sure to wear sturdy, thick soled shoes that you don't mind getting muddy! Work boots are recommended but not required.
