Tuesday/Wednesday Build Crew 2024

Tuesday & Wednesday Crew, thank you for your love and support!

 

As you know, we use our volunteers for just about every aspect of the build from framing, siding, hanging drywall, to painting - so it’s best to register with a big heart and open mind. No tools or experience necessary, our supervisors will be happy to train everyone on the tasks of the day 

 

Please plan on your own lunch, water bottles, and wear closed toe shoes/weather appropriate clothing.

 

ALL VOLUNTEERS SIGN IN AT THE VOLUNTEER CENTER BEFORE GOING TO BUILD SITE. The Volunteer Center is a converted shipping container located in the volunteer parking lot at 6424 Forest Lawn Ave.

 

LOCATION/ASSIGNMENT: 

All current build opportunities will be located at our development Bluestem Prairie. For navigation to this development/build sites, please use the address for our volunteer parking lot (6424 Forest Lawn Ave). All build sites are located within walking distance of the parking lot.

 

Your actual build site location/assignment along with other important information will be automatically sent you in via email two days prior to your volunteer date.

 

PARKING: 

Build site volunteers please use the designated volunteer parking lot located at 6424 Forest Lawn Ave. If the lot is full, please utilize any legal street parking in the area.

 

WEATHER CANCELATIONS: 

For snow-related cancelations, Habitat Omaha will follow the closing policy of Metropolitan Community College (MCC).  If MCC classes are canceled or scheduled for early dismissal, volunteers will also be canceled/dismissed. 

 

In most cases we will be canceling (or dismissing early) outdoor work assignments for volunteers will be anything lower than a temperature of 10° or higher than a temperature of 95°. 

 

In case of rain, we try to send a reassignment/cancelation email and text the day before your assignment, or occasionally, day of. Please be sure to check your email and phone if rain is forecasted on the day of your volunteer opportunity. We always try to reassign you to an indoor assignment, however; because most of our work is outside/unsheltered, we are not always able to reassign. 

 

We will email and text volunteers who are signed up if there is a cancelation or location change. 

 

You may also call 531-335-2018 for an automated message with weather/cancelation updates.
