Can you build a house?
We work with hundreds of volunteers over a build season and many
of them are beginners. How do we do it?
We have a core group of skilled volunteers who come out daily.
Our construction staff divides volunteers into small teams to do a
variety of tasks. All volunteers on site are led and supervised by
our staff throughout the day. Because there is a wide range of
skills represented in our volunteers, teams consist of experienced
and less experienced people. Tasks designated are both appropriate
and challenging to the skill level of each volunteer.
Volunteers are encouraged to share with us any personal
limitations they have so that we can give them safe and comfortable
tasks to do. For example: fear of heights, heavy lifting, etc.
Safety is top priority on the job site and every volunteer must
participate in our safety orientation before working. The
orientation is done on site the morning of the volunteer shift.
Yes, you can!
