Habitat relies heavily on its volunteers. By using donated
time and talents, we are able to provide affordable housing
to those in need. Please consider how you can join us as
a Habitat volunteer. The following positions are just some
of the openings we have right now.

Supervises Job Foremen/House Leaders. (Flexible schedule, requiring approximately 10-20 hours per week throughout a six-month project.)
