What do volunteers do?

Volunteers are vital to our work. Their labour helps us to keep house costs down so that low income families can afford to buy their HFH house. Volunteers work on building houses or preparing meals for builders. They help with administrative, fundraising and organisational activities. Some work locally in their own neighbourhood, others go abroad for one to three weeks as part of our Global Village programme.
