There’s an Opportunity for Everyone!

The Skagit Habitat Store

Opening in 2009, our Store sells donated new and used furniture, appliances, housewares, and building supplies to the public. The Store is one of our largest funding sources, as its net proceeds help our organization build more affordable homes in Skagit County. As a Store volunteer, you can help with:

  • Greeting customers
  • Cleaning/prepping/sorting donated items
  • Pricing our inventory
  • Stocking and selling donated items
  • Helping customers load purchased items in their vehicle
  • Appliance testing
  • Gas engine testing, repair, and analysis
  • Ride in the truck and help with community pickups

Event Support

Volunteer with Skagit Habitat at the NPSAR Annual Charity Golf Tournament at Skagit Golf & Country Club, where proceeds benefit our Homebuyer Program.

We’re looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help with hole-in-one supervision, driving sponsors, and post-event cleanup. Can you spare just two hours on August 15th? We’d love to have you on board!

If you’re interested in lending a hand, contact our Volunteer Coordinator to learn more and get signed up!

Construction Site

Our construction volunteers work alongside our future Habitat Homebuyers to help build their Habitat homes. No prior experience is needed, as we have on-site supervisors to provide hands-on training!

NOTE: If you have a particular skill such as a licensed electrician, plumber, drywall finisher, heavy equipment operator, roofer, or carpet and flooring installer, please consider lending us your expertise on the build site!
