As a Worksite Volunteer, you'll be serving alongside our community members and workforce trainees to repair and improve homes for low-income families, seniors, and individuals with disabilities. Tasks may include minor carpentry, painting, yard work, and basic plumbing or electrical work. No prior construction experience is necessary—just a willingness to learn and help!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please sign up for volunteer shifts at least 3 days in advance as it is difficult to safely accommodate volunteers last-minute.



What to Wear

Volunteers should dress to ensure safety and comfort while performing home repair and construction tasks. Be prepared to get dirty!

Volunteers Should Wear:

·      Sturdy, closed-toe shoes or work boots – No sandals or open-toe shoes for safety.

·      Durable pants (jeans or work pants preferred) – Avoid shorts or leggings, as long pants provide better protection.

·      T-shirt or long-sleeve shirt (long sleeves preferred) – Avoid loose or baggy clothing that could get caught in tools.

Additional Recommended Gear:

·      Hat, cap, sunglasses, etc. – For sun protection when working outdoors.

·      Weather-appropriate clothing – Layers for cold weather, rain gear if necessary.

·      Work gloves (if you have them) – To protect hands from splinters, sharp edges, and rough surfaces.  

What NOT to Wear:

·      Flip-flops, sandals, or dress shoes – These do not provide proper foot protection.

·      Loose or dangling jewelry – Can pose a safety hazard.

If personal protective equipment (PPE) is required for specific tasks, it will be provided on-site.

What to Bring

Please also bring a packed lunch and plenty of water – Volunteers will be working for extended periods, sometimes outdoors. Breaks will be provided, but food and beverages may not be available on-site.
