Across the world, people of all ages engage in volunteerism. Their reasons for doing so vary depending on who you ask: to improve their community, to support a particular initiative, to make friends and build lasting relationships – some volunteers just want to do something meaningful with their retirement.
It has been proven that volunteering boasts many benefits, including the improvement of overall health by strengthening the body, improving mood, and lessening stress.
At Habitat for Humanity, volunteering builds homes, houses families, and improves the lives of others. It empowers families through affordable housing and gives them the tools they need to make a better life for themselves.
