Why Should I Go? Volunteer teams offer a fantastic opportunity for “a holiday with a difference”. The concentration of people, volunteers and others, for a short time, usually five days to two weeks, hugely accelerates the host affiliate’s building schedule. The affiliate can provide more families with homes more quickly. It can move onto the next project more speedily. Volunteers with building skills are most welcome. And so is everyone else. You only need to know how to hold a hammer, or even a paintbrush. You may be asked to organize refreshments. The emphasis is not on what you can do, but on your availability and desire to work alongside a future homeowner who has obviously shown their need, and demonstrated their desire to partner with Habitat and our work within the community. What Can I Expect? Living and working with an affiliate is often a life-changing experience. Through your willingness to partner with people in need, often in other countries, you’ll learn about a host community’s customs, culture and economic circumstances. You’ll form a once-in-a-lifetime bond with other members of your team as you travel, live, work, eat and worship together, often in simple settings.
