As we celebrate our 40th anniversary this year, we are rolling out new volunteering and community engagement initiatives. To accommodate this transition, we are currently not scheduling groups larger than 6 individuals.
If you are an organization or company that is interested in learning more about engagement opportunities with Habitat, please contact Rachel McCartney, Outreach Manager, at (269) 344-2443 x204 or rmccartney@habitatkalamazoo.org.
We are not able to accommodate court-ordered community service volunteers at this time.
Looking for a fun and rewarding activity for yourself or a small group? Come volunteer with us! This could be a great opportunity to learn something new, volunteer, alongside some of the best people in town, and make a difference in our community.
- Construction
- Habitat ReStore
- Special Events
- Boards & Committees
Here are some areas in which help is needed.
Construction Volunteers: Our teams build and repair homes on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 8:30 am until 3:30 pm. We are actively seeking folks who can commit to volunteering on our new construction job sites one, two, or three days a week to join our crew of superstar “Regulars.”
Habitat ReStore Volunteers: Volunteers keep our Habitat ReStore humming. Volunteers can help on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. We have flexible shifts available on our online calendar.
Photographers, Writers, & Graphic Designers: We need good photographers to take high-resolution photos at Habitat events, construction sites, and the Habitat ReStore. The photos are used in publications and social media. We also have opportunities for writers and graphic designers to help with our communications.
Special Events: Help prepare and present special events with Habitat. This includes our anniversary celebration, receptions, home dedications, fundraisers, and outreach events.
Boards & Committees: Interested in getting more involved in creating affordable housing in Kalamazoo? We often need dedicated volunteers to serve on our Board of Directors and Board Committees. Attendance is required at once- or twice-monthly meetings, depending on the role.
