If you're a professional volunteer who’d like to learn more about HomeFront or volunteering, please contact us.

Professional volunteers are needed in the field at various times throughout the year. In the communities where we serve, we require specialized talent such as individuals with knowledge and experience in home remodeling to help with home evaluations year-round. During that same timeframe, we need volunteers with good people skills to help conduct home assessments.

Critical Pro Repair (CPR) for the home: Not every home in need requires the help of more than 15 volunteers. Some deserving neighbors only require a trustworthy handy person or two to tackle crucial emergency needs. HomeFront conducts all of the vetting, handles all of the beneficiary communication and provides the materials. Neighbors with construction skills can set aside a few hours or ½ of a day in a neighborhood near you to assist with targeted needs, such as installing grab bars, replacing steps and railings, changing out drafty windows or doors, as well as plumbing, electrical and heating improvements.

Throughout the year, HomeFront has a need for the following types of professionals:

• Builders

• Carpenters

• Electricians

• General Contractors

• Masons

• Painters

• Plumbers

• Remodeling Contractors

• Roofers

All can help us make HomeFront a huge success! Professionals can participate either as skilled reinforcement to a volunteer team or by leading a team of volunteers as a House Captain.

This is the team leader in charge of prioritizing HomeFront Day tasks, ordering materials in the weeks leading up to HomeFront Day, and overseeing the physical labor and safety of the volunteers at their project site. This person may, but need not, be a skilled contractor, as long as the individual has some knowledge of home repairs.
