Volunteer
Join us in making a difference through volunteering.
Habitat for Humanity fulfills its mission through wonderful volunteers that contribute in several ways to help see our build projects move from vision to reality.
You will find that volunteering with Habitat for Humanity is a very rewarding experience. Habitat work sites are places to build relationships as well as houses. Working together toward a common goal, diverse individuals find common ground, lasting friendships, and a sense of purpose and accomplishment. Once you start volunteering, you won’t want to stop! There are many ways you can get involved.
Construction Volunteers
We need skilled and unskilled individuals and groups to partner with us in building homes as well as assist with volunteer management. While we welcome experts in the field of construction and other skilled professions required to build a house, anyone can volunteer. We pair professionals in the field with unskilled volunteers who are willing to learn. Everyone is welcome and we guarantee that you will find your volunteer experience rewarding.

While Habitat does provide tools for the build project, you may be asked to bring tools specified for specific build days if you have them. Lunch is provided for all site volunteers.
Volunteer Committees
Would you want to help Habitat for Humanity build affordable houses without wielding a hammer? We always need action-minded individuals to help on our committees! If you have interest in planning, fundraising, publicity, organizing, or one of a number of other important tasks, we need you!

Hospitality Volunteers
Can you provide lunch for a site work team? We need regular volunteers to prepare and deliver lunches and snacks for construction volunteers to keep them going during a long day of physical exertion. Hospitality volunteers also greet volunteers on the construction sites, have them sign in, introduce the family to the volunteers, and just say thank you to the construction volunteers. To volunteer individually or as a group for a hospitality assignment contact us at 301-687-1006 or email alleganycountyhabitat@gmail.com
Equal Housing
Opportunity
We are pledged to the letter and spirit of U.S. policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity throughout the nation. We encourage and support an affirmative advertising and marketing program in which there are no barriers to obtaining housing because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national origin.
