- Become a part of our year-round construction team – the Swinging Seniors!
Construction volunteers make decent, affordable housing possible for people in need. Thank you to the thousands of individuals, corporations, churches, clubs, seniors, and families that have constructed and rehabbed almost 100 homes in York County! Construction volunteers work rain or shine on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
The first step to volunteering at York Habitat for Humanity is to register for a mandatory Volunteer Orientation. Orientations are usually held twice a month on the first Saturday of the month from 9:00-10:30 a.m. and now also offered on the 3rd Tuesday of the month from 6:00 - 7:30 p.m. The orientations include an introduction to Habitat’s unique homeownership program, safety instruction, and optional hands-on construction training for people without prior carpentry experience. Construction volunteers must complete the orientation prior to being placed on the construction schedule. See calendar.
Due to the large volume of construction volunteers each year and the necessity of sticking with a schedule, we cannot hold orientations on construction work days. Exceptions will only be made for whole-house sponsors and week-long work camps.
