Habitat for Humanity
Category: Volunteer Network Programs
Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit ecumenical organization that works to build affordable, decent housing for people who are in need. Habitat is run on the principle of putting Christian love into action, but you need not be a Christian to receive a home. Habitat is not a give-away program - people work to build their own homes. Habitat helps to create a diverse, loving community of people helping people, and is currently the largest homebuilder in the nation. Everyone is welcome to participate! St. Olaf Habitat's biggest projects are our spring break trips; for a week, we go to locations around the country to work with other Habitat affiliates. It's always a great experience, and we like to have as many participants as possible! We do encourage you to do volunteer work with our organization before trip sign-ups in February, though it is not required; join our alias to find out about the other volunteer opportunities we offer throughout the year!
