"Our visit to the family we were helping was a truly enlightening and fulfilling experience. It was then that I profoundly realized how privileged I am to live in proper housing as well as how I could reach out to less fortunate families."
A volunteer from the American School of Paris

Join our volunteer trips
Habitat offers volunteer trips through its Global Village program [4] for students and teachers to build homes together, get immersed in a new culture and language and get to know each other from a different perspective—all that by laying the foundations for new homes and new friendships.

Habitat can organize building trips during fall, spring or summer breaks, at a location of your choice. In Europe/Central Asia you can build with Habitat in the following countries: Armenia [5], Kyrgyzstan [6], Portugal [7], Poland [8], Romania [9], and Tajikistan [10]. You can also choose from over 30 countries worldwide [11]. Your school or university can also join one of Habitat’s special builds.
