Learn and Build Experience
Learn and Build Experience
An opportunity for a diverse group of students ages 16 to 18 to contribute to Habitat for Humanity’s mission of eliminating poverty housing.
From domestic trips to international excursions, participants serve Habitat’s mission of providing decent, affordable housing across the globe.
Individual youths come together as a team to build with a Habitat affiliate outside of their area. In addition to building, students will take part in various hands-on educational and community activities.
The Learn and Build Experience is geared specifically toward individual applicants. We do not place participants who know each other on the same trip (don’t worry; you will make friends!)
Throughout the experience, participants build, learn and live together in a close community setting. Teamwork and leadership are found in all of our activities on and off the build site: from putting up walls to cooking nightly dinners, you can expect to grow close with your teammates.
