Opportunity Details
Home Repair and Rebuild - Port St. Joe, FL
Who will you help?
- Volunteers help rebuild for families without homeowners insurance impacted by Hurricane Michael.
What will you do?
- Construction experience is preferred but not neccesary. Volunteers help with many different phases of construction such as mucking & gutting, demolition, insulation, mold remediation, drywall, mudding, priming, painting, flooring, trim, doors, and final punch. Tools are required.
Where will you volunteer?
- Hurricane Michael Recovery is helping to rebuild homes in the Panama City, Port St. Joe, and Marianna, FL communities. We work on multiple homes at any given time. Depending on the particular phase of construction and size of the home, each active site could take anywhere from 5-20 volunteers at a time (the average is 10-15). If you are part of a large group you may be split up at multiple houses.
Who can volunteer?
- Individuals and groups are welcomed to volunteer!
- Ages 13 and under: Not allowed to volunteer
- Ages 14-15: Parent/guardian must be present on-site with minor & a parent/guardian must sign the waiver at the bottom of this registration.
- Ages 16-17: Chaperone over the age of 18 must be onsite with the minor & parent/guardian must sign the waiver at the bottom of this registration.
- Ages 18+: No restrictions
What is the time commitment?
- Our workdays are generally 8:30-4:30 (with the exception of special events) with an hour break for lunch. You can volunteer for as many days as you like. (Volunteering for multiple days in a row creates the greatest impact because it gives you time to gain confidence and efficiency in your construction task.)
What to expect onsite?
- Please bring your own refillable water bottle to refill from the water coolers on site.
- NO open-toed or open-heeled shoes. NO TOMS or other cloth-like shoes. Wear shoes that are sturdy and appropriate for construction work such as sneakers or boots. We also ask that you wear appropriate clothes to work in, typically pants and a shirt. One week before your arrival we will give you recommendations on attire based on the projected phase of construction.
- If you have special requests or work restrictions, please write them in the "Additional Comments Section."
