Habitat for Humanity of Omaha

Construction Volunteers 

We need the help of volunteers like you to help us make the dream of decent, affordable housing a reality for all our neighbors in Omaha! 

TASKS: 

We use our volunteers for just about every aspect of the build from framing, and siding, to finishing and cleaning up - so it’s best to register with a big heart and open mind. Generally speaking, your entire build site will have one main task for the day and it will be indicated in the “Additional Event Details” section at least two days prior to your volunteer date.  

SKILL REQUIREMENTS:  

No tools or experience are necessary, our supervisors will be happy to train everyone on the tasks of the day.  

DRESS CODE: 

Please wear closed toe shoes/weather-appropriate clothing. Remember this is an active construction site when choosing your attire.  

AGE RESTRICTIONS: 

Volunteers must be at least 16 years of age. Volunteers between 16 and 18 years of age will have restricted use of tools and other equipment.  

WHAT WE’LL PROVIDE: 

We’ll provide personal protection equipment (Hardhats, glasses, earplugs, gloves, etc.), the necessary tools, skilled staff to train you, and a safe build site.  

WHAT TO BRING: 

Please bring a reusable water bottle so that you can fill up at our water station as needed. Disposable cups will be provided in case you forget to bring a reusable water bottle. There will also be a lunch break during the day (usually around noon), we do not provide lunch so please bring your own lunch or you may leave the site to go out for lunch.
