BECOME A HABITAT FOR HUMANITY VOLUNTEER

What kinds of Volunteers are needed?

Volunteers of all skill levels are needed to build the houses, work with the families, speak to community and church groups, serve on the committees, and help in the office.

If you would like to volunteer your time, talent, and financial support to those in need, please call Richland County Habitat for Humanity.

Churches are encouraged to become part of the "Covenant Church" team by pledging their prayers, volunteers, financial support and organizational involvement.

How Does Habitat Work?

Through hundreds of hours of volunteer labor, management expertise and tax-deductible donations of materials and money, Habitat builds homes with the help of the future homeowners. These partner families invest their "sweat equity" hours in our construction projects. The houses are then sold to the partner family through a no interest mortgage

held by Habitat. The homeowner begins to build immediate equity in their home and Habitat receives an income stream that, in turn, builds more new houses. Fundraising to purchase the materials is a constant effort. We have been blessed with gifts and grants from many foundations such as: the Richland County Foundation, Mike & Helen Volk Family Foundation, Russell & Mary Gimbel Foundation, The Milliron Family Foundation and others. Habitat is always seeking funds to help continue our mission. Also, Richland County Habitat for Humanity holds small fundraisers throughout the year, including our Spring Banquet.
