Description

SBP is a national disaster rebuilding organization headquartered in New Orleans.  We rely on unskilled volunteers to build homes for families in need. In New Orleans we are rebuilding for families affected by the February 2017 New Orleans East Tornado, as well as Hurricanes Katrina and Isaac. Most of these families have not yet returned home due to massive delays in federal funding or years of fighting contractor fraud. In New Orleans we also use volunteers to help create affordable housing through our Opportunity Housing program which turns abandoned and blighted properties into affordable homes for first time home buyers and renters.  

What we need:

  • You! Unskilled or skilled volunteers daily to help build homes!

What to expect:

  • Potential activities include demo, mold remediation, drywall, insulation, flooring, painting, trim, tile, etc.
  • All training, supervision, supplies, safety gear and safety instruction provided by SBP
  • Daily opportunities 8:30 - 4:30 with an hour break for lunch
  • Individuals and groups welcome
  • Building sites are located in and around Greater New Orleans
  • Wear clothing that can get dirty, close toed shoes.  Remember this is a construction site.
