Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers are the heart and backbone of Habitat.
Time and time again, our community has demonstrated its generosity through countless hours of volunteering. Through this collective effort families have been able to move into their very own homes – Thank You Volunteers
Marquette County Habitat for Humanity still aims to seek passionate individuals and organizations to join us in our fight against substandard housing in Marquette County. Habitat invites people from all walks of life to work together in partnership to build houses with families in need.

We will contact you for registration and scheduling. Construction volunteers need to complete our free on-line safety course, offered thru our insurance company. Go to Lockton Infinity Insurance to participate in the training. Check out our volunteer listings if you need ideas on how you’d best like to help!
We ALWAYS need help on our committees - Family Selection, Family Support, Church Relations, and Board of Directors! Committees meet once monthly and are a great way to get involved and help your community. Sign up today and help a family to get a "hand up" to have safe, affordable and reliable housing!
