Cheboygan County Habitat for Humanity is doing so many great things in our county!
Organizational Information: Since our establishment in 1994, we have been tirelessly working to construct, rehabilitate, and repair homes for deserving families in Cheboygan County. Our housing programs have benefited 59 families to date! Over the past 30 years, our Home Repair Program has gained immense popularity and has become an equally important way for us to serve our mission alongside our traditional Homeownership Program.
We are committed to our mission of putting God's love into action by bringing people together to build homes, communities, and hope. Our vision is to create a world where everyone has a decent place to call home. We firmly believe that together, we can achieve more.
We have an office staff of 5 and a Re Store staff of 4 who assist with our organization's day-to-day operations. We also have a board of directors of 8-12 who work to set the organization's strategic direction
We just completed 2 new home builds in Indian River and 8 to 1 o home repairs last calendar year. We anticipate building 2 new homes in Indian River, a home rehab in Cheboygan, and another 8 to 10 home repair projects this yea
Volunteer Needs: Cheboygan County Habitat for Humanity has volunteer needs that span across our organization. At the top, we need board members to help keep our organization moving forward. These volunteer positions are a 2-year term. From there, we need volunteers to serve on our board and operational committees. We have the following committees: Finance, Events, Board Development, Construction, Program Services, Fund Development, and ad-hoc committees as needed.
Daily, we need volunteers to help in our Habitat Restore. Volunteers could help pick up donations, organize merchandise, greet customers, assist donors and customers, and much more. Volunteers are typically needed between store hours and on Tuesdays.
When we are active on the job sites, we are looking for regular volunteers who can commit to working one day a week to provide constant support to our construction team. We are also looking for volunteers who can help when they are able, including both individual and group volunteers.
Occasionally, we need help in our office and with our different fundraisers. If you have a passion for affordable housing and would like to make an impact in the mission of Cheboygan County Habitat for Humanity, we will find the right volunteer task tor you!
