Volunteering with Caroline County Habitat for Humanity 

Caroline County Habitat for Humanity could not operate without volunteers, volunteers serve in every capacity of our organization from the Board of Directors to swinging hammers on a project site. All volunteers are required to fill out a liability waiver, if you’re under 16 you must have your parent’s permission.  Volunteering is easy as 1, 2, 3.  

Volunteering as an individual

There are a lot of opportunities for individuals at Caroline Habitat.  To volunteer on a project site simply register at Volunteer up Here.  Create a username and password;  fill out the interest form, and then you can sign up for projects.  No experience is necessary as we always have a skilled site supervisor training and ensuring everything meets code. Volunteers on construction sites must be at least 16 years old.  If you are interested in serving on a committee or Board email admin@habitatofcaroline.org

Volunteering as a group 

Habitat loves working with groups, often when we know we have a committed group we can undertake larger projects.  No experience is necessary as we always have a skilled site supervisor training volunteers, ensuring everything meets local codes, is safe and making sure all have a great time. To discuss options for your group email volunteer@Habitatorcaroline.org 

What to expect when volunteering on a project

All volunteers are required to sign up through the Volunteer Up Volunteer System. Volunteers either groups or individuals will meet at a project site at a predetermined time.  A trained site supervisor will conduct a project orientation, which includes site safety rules, laying out the day’s goals and training to complete the day’s tasks. Tasks are typical construction site work things like framing, roofing, installing flooring, painting and landscaping.
