Habitat Home Build (Spring/Summer Groups and Fall 2008): Construction of new Habitat homes. Tuesday-Saturday, 7:45am-3:15pm. This project includes these sites: Musicians' Village, Westbank, St. Bernard Parish and others. When you sign up for one of these, you will be manually assigned to a construction site and receive your morning meeting place closer to your date of volunteering. The needs of our construction sites vary so we place volunteers where they are most needed. If you are scheduling yourself less than two weeks prior to your work date, please contact us directly.
