Get Involved with Habitat for Humanity: Volunteer and Support Opportunities
Welcome to Habitat for Humanity of Tulare/Kings Counties! We’re excited to introduce you to a world of meaningful volunteer and support opportunities within our local Habitat for Humanity affiliate. Our mission is to bring people together to build homes, communities, and hope for those in need. We believe that everyone deserves a safe and decent place to call home. Whether you’re a seasoned volunteer or new to the world of philanthropy, there are countless ways for you to get involved, make a difference, and experience the rewarding feeling of giving back to your community.
Volunteer Opportunities
Join us on the construction site as a volunteer builder. No experience is necessary; we provide training and guidance. You’ll work alongside skilled construction professionals and fellow volunteers to help build homes from the ground up. Your contributions can change lives and create lasting memories.
Our ReStores offer new and gently used home improvement items at affordable prices. Volunteer your time to assist with assembly of furniture, customer service, pricing items, organizing inventory, or even running the cash register. Proceeds from our ReStores help fund our housing projects.
Lend a hand in critical repair projects for low-income families. Help with tasks like painting, fence building and yard cleanup work. Your skills, no matter how modest or advanced, can have a profound impact on the safety and well-being of homeowners.
If you’re a student or part of a youth group, consider forming a Habitat for Humanity campus or youth chapter. These groups engage in advocacy, fundraising, and volunteering activities. You can make a difference while gaining leadership skills.
Behind every successful project, there’s a dedicated team handling administrative tasks. If you have organizational and administrative skills, you can contribute by helping us manage projects, schedules, and outreach efforts.
We host various events and fundraisers throughout the year. Join us in planning, organizing, and executing these events, or participate as a volunteer on the day of the event. Your involvement will help us raise crucial funds for our mission.
