We have several ways of working with volunteer groups:

If your group members will schedule themselves, then you can request from our staff an access code so that when used, will ensure your volunteers all schedule themselves on the same projects and times. This is usually used if you have a large organization where only some are volunteering, or if your organization is sponsoring a build or build dates. If this describes your group, then please [ email ] us.

If you will have a group leader that will schedule your entire group at once. You can create your group online, then schedule your group via our online system. This method requires that the group leader coordinates with it's members and is responsible to ensure you have as many volunteers participate on your dates as you sign up for. If you provide the group members email addresses, we can automatically email them the schedule reminders. If this describes your volunteer group, please go to our volunteer calendar, click the "group leader" option at the top, and click the "SIGN UP" button where you find opportunities that meet your interests and availability.

Note:
As you may know, Habitat for Humanity International suggests a donation from corporate volunteer groups.  This suggested donation does not apply to church or club volunteer groups.  Habitat for Humanity of Hudson County suggests a corporate donation of $150 per volunteer per day.  This suggested donation is relatively low compared to other area Habitat for Humanity organizations; however, it is a very important source of financial support as we work in partnership with families in need to build and renovate decent, affordable housing.  The cost of our first two homes, both three bedroom units, will be approximately $135,000 each.

If you have any questions about this process, please feel free to email the Volunteer Coordinator.
