At our construction sites and ReStores, we welcome individuals seeking community service opportunities. Volunteering on the construction sites requires a full-day commitment of seven (7) hours, while our ReStores require at least nine (9) hours overall. Anyone who is required to complete volunteer hours for any reason is considered a community service volunteer.

If these hours are court-mandated, the offense must neither be a violent or sexual crime, theft, or any other charge that staff deems could endanger volunteers or the integrity of Habitat for Humanity.

To complete your community service hours with Habitat, you must first submit an online application and follow a subsequent orientation. When you have completed the application, you will receive an email with details on the next steps. You will be notified of your acceptance or rejection in 3-5 business days, so those seeking a turnaround time of less should look to complete their community service hours elsewhere. Check your email’s spam folder for our responses to your inquiries, as often times our .org email address gets filtered out of your inbox and mistaken for spam.
