Habitat for Humanity of Morgan County Volunteer Information
Habitat for Humanity of Morgan County is a volunteer-driven organization. We welcome people from all walks of life to join us as we build simple, decent, affordable houses in partnership with God and families in need. Though the vast majority have no construction experience or building skills, volunteers are involved in most phases of construction. By working side-by-side with the family who will live in the house, our volunteers experience for themselves the joy created when a family is able to realize their dream of home ownership.
Habitat volunteers contribute more than muscle. Creativity, strategy, and technical skills are among the many invaluable traits volunteers bring to the organization. With a minimal staff, Habitat for Humanity of Morgan County depends upon volunteer committees for support with projects like Family Selection, Family Support, Resource Development and Public Relations, Construction, ReStore establishment, Church Relations, and Land Acquisition.
We invite volunteers to help us build, assist in the office, pick up donated building materials for the ReStore, serve on committees, and help with special projects that benefit the organization. Time commitments vary; some volunteers dedicate every day of the week to Habitat for Humanity of Morgan County and others spend just a few hours each month working on projects or in the Outlet. As a volunteer for Habitat for Humanity of Morgan County, you can choose to volunteer as little or as often as you would like. All of these positions are a tremendous help that directly or indirectly result in the construction of simple, decent homes in Morgan County.
