Home construction

Will County Habitat for Humanity constructs homes with volunteer labor.

Skilled Leader

  •    Skilled Leaders commit to the leading crews (4-6 people) at least monthly (1st Sat, 2nd Sat, etc) in in at least 1 skill area (siding, drywall, insulation, painting, trim, completion)

  •    SLs work as assigned on whatever house needs their skill, with minimal supervision by HFH Staff during the day.

 

Finish Team

  •     Finish Team members commit to being on call to help finish houses as needed

  •     FTs begin with painting and stay with house through completion and walk-thru
