In the website please click on VOLUNTEER, create an account or log-in if you have one, then check the shift(s) you'd like to volunteer for.
Morning and afternoon shifts are available, you can work one or both shifts.
A lunch shift is also available where you can prepare and serve lunch to the team.
Lunch will be served from 11:30 to 12:30 where everyone can be together to share photos, fun, and laughter.

You do not need any experience to volunteer with Habitat for Humanity, we will teach you what you need to know.
You may be working inside or outside so please wear sturdy shoes, dress in layers, and bring a water bottle.

One of the keystones of Habitat for Humanity's mission of helping families have a place to call home is the act of building together. We call this Sweat Equity or Homeowner Contribution. Each adult living full-time in the home is required to complete 250 hours of approved volunteer service hours within the Habitat Roaring Fork organization. Of the 250 hours per adult, 100 of those hours may be donated by friends, family, co-workers, or members of the community. Sweat Equity credit is given for volunteering on the build site, our ReStore, providing lunch, and a variety of other activities.

In addition to volunteering during this Team Day, you can sign up individually to contribute time on behalf of Kimber or any of our other homebuyers. Please contact the volunteer coordinator Carolyn Meadowcroft at 970-379-4880, or carolynm@habitatroaringfork.org.

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.
