Together, you’ll help create safe, affordable housing for families in the Taos community while gaining hands-on experience and making connections that last beyond your week here. No construction experience is necessary.  Just bring your energy, curiosity, teamwork, and willingness to get involved.When the workday is over, there’s a whole new side of Taos waiting to be explored. Visit Taos Pueblo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the oldest continuously inhabited communities in the United States. Discover the adobe architecture and history that have shaped the region for centuries, then take in the breathtaking views from the Rio Grande Gorge, where the river cuts dramatically through the high desert landscape (worth a google image search).  And after a full day of work and exploring, slow down and enjoy one of the experiences that makes Taos truly unique: the natural hot springs. Surrounded by mountains and the beauty of Northern New Mexico, they’re the perfect place to relax, recharge, and enjoy time with your team.A week in Taos is more than a service trip. It’s an opportunity to work hard, learn something new, experience a remarkable place, connect with a new community, and leave knowing that your time and effort made a meaningful difference for a local family.Come build with us. Come experience Taos.

Hanover and King William Habitat for Humanity is a locally run, independent affiliate of Habitat International and is responsible for Hanover and King William Counties. For over 35 years, they have built homes alongside families who pay an affordable mortgage. Habitat’s repair program addresses critical repairs around the home. With Habitat’s help, and the help of the community, Habitat homeowners achieve the strength, stability, and independence they need to build a better life for themselves and their families.We build all of our homes with volunteer labor in partnership with volunteers like you. Under the supervision of our Construction Supervisor, all manual labor (except for licensed trades) is performed by volunteers. We truly could not do what we do without our amazing volunteers. Collegiate Challenge participants typically stay with us for 6 days and arrive on Sunday afternoon. They work 4 days on our construction site (weather permitting) with 1 day to sightsee, and leave on Saturday. Hanover and King William Habitat has a partnership with a local church that can provide living arrangements, if the group desires.
