The morning of the volunteer day, please go to the Wapiti Commons Build Site and check in at the Habitat office upstairs in the building where Rib City Restaurant is located. Please enter from the side door, go upstairs and to your left. We will get you set up for the volunteer day.

You do not need any experience to volunteer with Habitat for Humanity, we will teach you what you need to know.

We usually break for lunch around 11:30, please bring a sack lunch unless advised lunch will be provided.

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 appreciate your time and effort to build together with Habitat Roaring Fork Valley.

In addition to volunteering during this Build Day, you can sign up individually to work at Wapiti Commons or at our ReStore. Please contact the volunteer coordinator Carolyn Meadowcroft at 970-379-4880, or email volunteer@habitatroaringfork.org for more information.

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.
