    Get Involved with Wyoming Valley Habitat for Humanity

    January 31st, 2017 Posted by 0 thoughts on “Get Involved with Wyoming Valley Habitat for Humanity”

    We rely on the contribution of volunteer efforts for each house we complete. Construction site volunteers (skilled and unskilled) are always needed.

    Volunteers are a very important part of our organization… 

    WORK ON SITE

    We build every Saturday from 9:00am-3pm (except holidays). For specific locations, directions and to schedule a volunteer date, contact our office at 570-820-8002 or e-mail volunteer@wv-hfh.org

    All tools, safety glasses, and dust masks are furnished on the job site. If you have special tools that you prefer to use, please feel free to bring them. 

    Job sites are often dusty and dirty so please dress appropriately with old clothes and sturdy shoes.

    SUPPLY LUNCH 

    Lunch is a highlight for the Saturday volunteers. Workers take a break from building to enjoy good food in the company of the volunteers. Several local restaurants, churches or individuals have donated lunches. If you would like to donate lunch call the office at 570-820-8002 or email volunteer@wv-hfh.org. Sara, our volunteer coordinator, will contact you and confirm the number of volunteers that will be working that Saturday. It is a great way to meet some wonderful volunteers and help Habitat!

    SCHEDULE YOUR GROUP

    Have a group and would like to help? If you or your group would like to volunteer by hammering and nailing or providing lunches for other volunteers, please call the office at 570-820-8002 or email Sara at volunteer@wv-hfh.org to schedule work

    Annual Appeal

    Every Habitat House is Built Through Your Generosity... Donate Now

    Annual Appeal

    On behalf of the Board of Directors of Habitat, we are grateful for your careful consideration of this opportunity to join with us in fulfilling Habitat’s mission.

    We invite you to support Habitat families who are selected based on level of need, willingness to become partners in the Habitat program and the ability to repay a no-interest mortgage.  Our volunteers are working hard on a new house in Wilkes-Barre for a working mom and her two young children.

    Wyoming Valley Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit organization that builds simple, decent homes to sell to families in need. We use volunteer labor and charitable gifts to ensure our homes are affordable to low-income families in Wyoming Valley. WVHFH is a Christian ministry dedicated to building homes in partnership with the entire community.

    WVHFH knows that good housing is the key to helping a child turn into a productive adult who, in turn, helps strengthen our community. Our tried-and-tested partnership lets families become part of their own housing solution. Of course, these homes are not handouts. Each family will contribute hundreds of hours of “sweat equity,” working side by side with our experts and volunteers to help build, then buy their own home on terms they can afford. On behalf of the Board of Directors of Wyoming Valley Habitat for Humanity, we are grateful for your careful consideration and your support of our Annual Appeal.

    Thank you for helping Habitat build homes…and hope.
