Volunteer Opportunities
Habitat for Humanity of the San Juans is a grassroots, community-based organization that relies on local volunteers to build homes, community and hope in Colorado’s San Juan region, including Montrose, Ouray and San Miguel Counties.
There are many ways to become involved in Habitat’s work. Please see the list below with some descriptions of volunteer opportunities, then fill out the form at the bottom of this page. Thank you for considering volunteering with us.
Construction Volunteer
You can be a part of the change you want to see in your community by volunteering with your local Habitat for Humanity of the San Juans. As a construction volunteer, you have the opportunity to work alongside our construction manager to build new homes. Basic construction experience is desirable, but not required. We also encourage the individual to have an interest in learning in the construction field. No tools are required, we will provide all necessary tools and supplies. We just ask that you come with a willing heart, an able body and a smile. Learn new skills and methods while working alongside the Habitat construction team.
We also have smaller build opportunities with our ramp program in partnership with Region 10!
Restore Volunteers
You can be a part of the change you want to see in your community by volunteering with your local Habitat for Humanity of the San Juans. As a volunteer in the ReStore, you have the opportunity to put your skills to use in the store where you feel your passion is best tapped! Whether you have a knack for sorting and organizing small items or prefer to take on more heavy lifting, we have a position for you. Are you an electronics guru? Help us test donated electronics before they hit the sales floor. Do you love your time in the kitchen? We can use your kitchen savvy to sort and price donated kitchen items. Do you love customer service? Train as a cashier! Are you a talented decorator? Become a merchandiser. Love hardware? Books? Clothing? Home décor? We have opportunities for anyone and everyone who wishes to help build safe and affordable homes by serving in the ReStore. All profits from the ReStore help pay for new homes in our region!
