Volunteering as a Group
with Flower City Habitat for Humanity
Every year, several thousand volunteers help build our homes. Groups from businesses, congregations and civic organizations all contribute their time, building homes and building teamwork.
Flower City Habitat for Humanity welcomes employees to spend a day at our building sites to foster a stronger sense of working together for a common cause. Those not used to swinging a hammer gain confidence, while the cooperation needed to build a house translates into great communication and true teamwork back at the office.
A company may send up to 12 employess on a Friday (our large group day) one time a year, as space is available. While we don't "charge" for team building, our ideal partnership combines both volunteer labor and a cash donation to cover professional supervision, tools and building materials.
Corporate membership in Habitat provides multiple group days over the course of a year, depending on the amount contributed. A corporate membership at $1,000 (our minimum "House Framer" level) provides three large group days in a year. Click here to learn more.
