More details on construction site volunteer opportunities
Habitat for Humanity Lakeside builds year-round, and volunteers are welcome to help with new construction or repair projects, either as an individual or in a group. The construction day runs from 8:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. on most Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. The day starts with a safety meeting, overview of the project/family, instructions on the task for the day and a prayer. Habitat provides all of the tools and materials you will need for the task that day. We also provide water. Lunch is on your own unless otherwise specified for the day. No construction experience is necessary for any role. We are willing to teach and work with all levels and abilities of volunteers and look forward to working with you!

Individual/Group Build daysHabitat for Humanity Lakeside builds year-round, and individual volunteers or groups are welcome to help with new construction or repair projects. Our build days are on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
Lot MaintenanceDo you enjoy yard work, lawn mowing or shoveling? We are looking for individuals, youth groups or families to adopt one of our vacant lots. When you adopt a lot, we ask you to help maintain the lot by mowing the lawn in the summer months, shoveling when it snows in the winter months and raking the lawn once in the spring and once in the fall. You can choose to adopt a lot for a full year or a specific season. You can also choose to be put on a contact list to help out when needed. We'll simply call or email you when we're running short on volunteers and need work done.
