Upcoming volunteer shifts

Volunteer Opportunities

Construction (seasonal; online sign-up required)

Construction volunteers do the important work of building homes on our job sites throughout Pierce and St. Croix Counties. Don't worry, construction experience is NOT necessary. We have a great team who will help you learn!


Construction volunteers must be at least 16 years old to participate on site (with a parent or guardian present); age appropriate activities will be determined for volunteers under 18. 


Shifts are typically from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm, Wednesday through Friday and some Saturdays. Each volunteer must complete a liability waiver before they are permitted to work on a job site, as well as view a training and safety video that shows what a typical day as a construction volunteer may be like. Tasks that volunteers work on in this role depend on what stage of construction the project is in.


If you are interested in sponsoring a build, company build days, or have questions, please email community.outreach@scvhabitat.org or call 715-350-8575.


ReStore (year-round)

As a ReStore volunteer, you are part of the process that brings affordable housing to our communities. Goods donated to the ReStore are either used in our construction projects or sold to the public - with proceeds going to support our work in the community! 


Tasks that ReStore volunteers work on include receiving and preparing incoming donations for sale, helping donors, assisting and ringing up customers, cleaning, and general store maintenance. Light-moderate lifting and movement (both on flat surfaces and stairs) can be expected.


Shifts are typically from 11 am to 3 pm, Tuesday through Saturday. Volunteers must be at least 16 years old (with a parent or guardian present) and able to lift 35lbs.  Each volunteer must complete a liability waiver before they are permitted to work at the ReStore, and may view a training and safety video that goes over safety concerns specific to a ReStore.


If you are interested in volunteering at the ReStore, please 

call 715-318-9122 or email ReStore@scvhabitat.org.

Serve on our Board of Directors

Strong organizational structure means our community is involved in our strategy, oversight, and accountability.


Consider board service if you have the passion and experience to partner with us on our mission to:  

  • Create opportunities for all people to live in safe and affordable shelter
  • Put faith into action by helping to build, renovate or preserve homes, and by partnering with others to accelerate and broaden access to affordable housing as a foundation for breaking the cycle of poverty
  • Advocate for just and fair housing policy
  • Promote dignity and hope through equitable, accountable partnerships
  • Support sustainable and transformative development

Take a look at the Board Member Description below and reach out to Kristie Smith (executivedirector@scvhabitat.org or 715-350-8575) to learn more.

Join a Committee

Committees are an integral part of making our organization work!  There are many opportunities to join us on a year-round basis:

  • Faith Relations Committee: Connect with faith organizations to coordinate volunteer and giving efforts and connections with our new families.
  • Human Resources Committee: Support the staff and volunteers  with general advice, support and direction on personnel related matters.  
  • Public Relations Committee:  Help with newsletters, media outreach, sharing our work/mission with other community members and groups.
  • Fundraising Committee:  Identifying and approaching potential donors, developing fundraising materials and help with grant writing.
  • Site Selection and Construction Committee: This two-part group helps plan future builds, supports construction staff and chair and also connects our organization with long-term strategic plans for land development and purchase, including working with local government and developers to help ensure future lots are available and buildable for partner families.
  • Family Selection Committee: This committee interviews and researches applicant partner families to present to the board for consideration.
  • Family Support Committee: In this role, volunteers work with families before and after construction as they transition into ownership and help with budgeting and home maintenance tips.
  • Volunteer Relations Committee:  Organize and contact volunteers to set up times/places for volunteer opportunities, including in the office and on the job site or other outreach efforts.  Tracks volunteer hours and sets criteria for volunteer recognition.

If you are interested in joining a committee and would like to know more, please call Kristie at (715.350.8575) or email info@scvhabitat.org
