Other ways in which you can support our work:

Youth Activities
You must be 16 or over to volunteer on a Habitat-NYC site, and building opportunities currently are very limited. But there are many activities that young people can do to help solve our city's housing crisis, and Habitat for Humanity International offers a number of games and organized programs for youth.
