About

Habitat for Humanity is a community service organization that helps build houses in our community for people who can’t afford them on their own.

The campus chapter works in Amherst and Turners Falls to build affordable houses. (New location coming soon!)

Members can sign up for builds at our monthly meetings. They typically are on Saturdays from 9-4 or Sundays from 12-4. Sign up is on a first come, first serve basis and a limited number of people are allowed for each build.
