Description

Beaches Habitat for Humanity is a mission-driven organization based in the Jacksonville Beaches. People in our community partner with us to build or improve a safe and affordable place to call home at a price they can afford. In addition to paying back an affordable loan, the homeowners also participate in home construction, building alongside volunteers. Construction volunteers assist with all stages of construction throughout the year, helping to build and repair homes under the guidance of our friendly and knowledgeable staff. As a part of the construction volunteer team, you will be paired with a skilled leader who will teach you everything you need to know to have a safe and productive day on the construction site. During your time volunteering, be prepared to meet new friends, learn new skills, and make a difference in your community.
