Volunteer for Habitat

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Habitat for Humanity Lakeside, Ozaukee County. In addition to “pounding nails,” there are many ways to help Habitat provide simple, decent shelter in partnership with people in need.

Volunteer Opportunities

Crew Leader
We are always in need of the invaluable expertise given by experienced, skilled or professional workers to serve as crew leaders and teachers.

General Worksite Volunteer
Regardless of skill or ability, we welcome anyone (as long as you are ready to work and willing to learn) to provide general labor at our site under the supervision of our crew leaders. Please note that worksite volunteers must be at least 16 years old and have parental consent to participate.

Committee and Office Volunteer
Our builds wouldn’t be possible without the hard work and dedication of our volunteer committees and office people. We are always seeking those who wish to offer their expertise and assistance with our behind-the-scenes duties.
