Groups
Habitat Philadelphia relies on
volunteers for every aspect of its program. We work with groups of
volunteers as well as individuals to build affordable homes with our partner
families.
The Basics:
-The maximum number of volunteers in a group is 10.
Since we work on Philadelphia row homes, we can only safely accommodate and
supervise 10 volunteers per site. If your organization is looking to do a
project with a large number of volunteers, your best resource would be to
contact Greater Philadelphia Cares,
www.philacares.com.
-We can also work
with smaller groups of 3-7, these groups may be on site with other volunteers as
well.
-At this time, we have a limited number of build days available for the winter, contact our Volunteer Coordinator if you are interested in a Group Build Day.
-We ask that all groups that work with us fundraise to
cover the cost of their build day. Lunch is included for all groups who
make donations, as well as a brief Habitat info/questions and answer session
during lunch. We will work with you on fundraising ideas if
needed.
For any other questions, or if you are
interested in bringing a group out to work with us, please contact Meghan, our
Volunteer Coordinator, at volunteer@habitatphiladelphia.org,
