Habitat for Humanity Roaring Fork Valley has an opportunity for you to volunteer with us on Thursday morning, November 3rd, 2022, at our ReStore in Glenwood Springs. We have put together a valuable day of volunteering in our home improvement section, our warehouse, and maybe even on a landscaping project.
You don't need any experience to work at the ReStore; we will teach you what you need to know. Depending on the task, you may be working inside or outside, so please wear sturdy shoes, dress in layers, and bring a water bottle.
Join us at the ReStore at 53 Calaway Ct., Glenwood Springs, CO 81601, from 9:30 am to 1:00 pm.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact LeAnna Atkinson at 970-618-1690 or email her at LeAnnaA@HabitatRoaringFork.org.
We are excited to work with you. Thank you for being so supportive of affordable housing in our valley.

In Support of Habitat for Humanity of the Roaring Fork Valley
Habitat for Humanity of the Roaring Fork Valley partners with local families who otherwise would not be able to afford a home of their own, through conventional means. We build homes in partnership with local families in need of a hand-up, not a hand-out. The wide gap between our high resort area cost of living (especially for housing) and the actual rural community wages makes it difficult to retain teachers, and essential personnel within our area- all who hold jobs that are key to the well being of our children and community, but cannot afford to live close to where they work.
Our local Habitat has been building homes with lower income families for almost 20 years, but we have become increasingly aware of the acute need for housing for the middle income workers who provide vital services to our community. This is what brought about an extraordinary collaboration with the Roaring Fork School District, Pitkin County, and the Town of Basalt to build the Basalt Vista Housing Partnership- located behind Basalt High School- which provided 27 affordable homes. Our current development is Wapiti Commons located in South Rifle. We have started construction on 20 affordable homes consisting of ten 3-bedroom townhomes and two 3-bedroom condos for families, and eight 1-bedroom condos for older adults or small families. Our next development will be homes in Glenwood Springs so please watch for details on our website.
Habitat for Humanity is a movement of people who build more than houses. By bringing homeowners together with volunteers, donors, community leaders, foundations, and other supporters we are building stable families, safe neighborhoods, and caring communities.
