New Construction
We do not currently have a home under construction, but hope to begin building again soon!
Help make dreams of homeownership a reality for hardworking, low-income families in our new home construction builds. Volunteers assist with framing, siding, flooring, trimming, painting, installing doors and windows, landscaping and more! No experience is needed; our construction managers will teach you anything you need to know on site.
Contact us to learn more or sign up for a shift at dakright@gdmhabitat.org.
Rock the Block® home repairs
Assist residents with needed repairs and maintenance to make their homes safe, accessible, comfortable, and eye-catching. Most projects consist of weatherizing windows, doors, and siding; building decks or ramps for easier accessibility; painting or landscaping; and much more!

Schedule a Group
Groups can be between five to eight people (or more when working on sites with multiple houses). Just register below and you’ll be contacted by a real person with a custom link for you and your group to use. Sign up is easy and everyone will be able to sign the waiver online (keepin’ it green). Everyone who signs up online will get all the details about their build a week before.
