AGE UPDATE: Volunteers aged 12-15 are welcome to join us on either July 1st or 8th to help with landscaping! These volunteers must be accompanied by a parent during their time volunteering and will need to fill out the minor release waiver on site.

COVID-19 UPDATE: NEW VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES ARE AVAILABLE. Taking precautions to keep all individuals safe, we are opening up shifts for volunteers once again to help complete the two homes we're building in partnership with Habitat for Humanity and CIRCLES® Lexington County. The following precautions will be in place for all volunteer shifts:

-Limited volunteers (6 volunteers per house per shift, with only 2 in any given room at a time if indoors, and limited homeowners/staff)
-Regular sanitizing of equipment used at the end of each shift
-Making hand sanitizer, disposable gloves, and masks available on site (we encourage you to bring your own mask and work gloves, but will have disposable ones available)
-Volunteers will be asked to take their temperature just prior to reporting to the work site. Volunteers should stay home if it is anything above normal and/or if they're experiencing any symptoms outlined by the CDC here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/symptoms-testing/symptoms.html


Volunteer communication will be through the email you provide when registering. You will receive a confirmation email when your registration is complete. Please save all email communication and refer to it for details. Any cancellations will be done by notification through email as well.


As a reminder, here are the details for these builds:

We will work together to finish the homes for Soshanna (Soso for short), and her 3 children, and for Keelah, and her son, on Jessie St. in Lexington, SC. Volunteer opportunities are available each Wednesday and Saturday (max 6 volunteers/shift) until the homes are complete. Each date has a morning and afternoon shift. Feel free to sign up for as many dates/times as you'd like!

We ask that you take a moment now to read Habitat's FAQs by clicking on this link: https://www.habitatcsc.org/frequently-asked-questions.html. It addresses questions about previous experience, age requirements, and several helpful details about the construction site.

PLEASE NOTE: To serve on our builds, volunteers must be 16 years of age or older. Volunteers aged 16-17 will be required to have a waiver form signed by a parent or legal guardian.

The Waiver for Adults and/or Minors can be signed on site upon arrival.

ARE YOU READY TO BUILD?

Individual Volunteers can sign up for specific dates and times using the free registration below. Each shift has a limit to the number of volunteers able to be on site and can fill up at any time. Please check back regularly to see if new opportunities have been added!

Because of the limited numbers on site, we will not be doing group reservations. We encourage anyone wanting to serve with others to have one individual register everyone at one time.

If you are having difficulty registering, send us an email and we will be happy to assist you.

We are excited to resume volunteer opportunities on these two homes and look forward to seeing you on site!
