  • Bringing people together

    to build homes, communities, and hope 

Everyone deserves a home base.

Like many communities across the country, Kent County is in an affordable housing crisis. Thousands of local households are living in overcrowded, unsafe, or unaffordable housing. Habitat for Humanity of Kent County works with individuals and families of all sizes, colors, ages, and backgrounds to help everyone build a safe and healthy home base to pursue their dreams.

Building our future.

Communities are strong when everyone has access to affordable housing. Unaffordable or inadequate housing is often the largest obstacle on the path to a family’s success. When families in our communities thrive, we all thrive.

  • Habitat for Humanity of Kent County provides a variety of volunteer opportunities which can vary depending on the group size, age restrictions, season and general availability. Construction opportunities are full day commitments. Should you prefer a partial day activity or volunteers to work in shifts you will be scheduled for specific tasks or in one of our 3 ReStore locations.
  • Age restrictions apply to certain projects and will be enforced. Most tasks require volunteers to be at least 16 years old. Specific jobs may allow other ages. These restrictions will be indicated by a member of the volunteer services department when a date is offered.
  • Please acknowledge that you understand groups may not be confirmed until 30-60 DAYS PRIOR TO THE DATE AGREED UPON by our volunteer services department. Due to the volume of requests for volunteer opportunities, we will ask that you agree/disagree to the date we offer within a week’s time (unless otherwise noted in our email). This ensures we can look for an alternative date if necessary and place you within a timely fashion.
  • After the completed form is submitted expect to be contacted by a member of our volunteer services department within one week.
