Volunteer: Building Supplies Donations for Schenectady Habitat for Humanity

What is Schenectady Habitat for Humanity?

As one of 1,500 affiliates of Habitat for Humanity International, Schenectady Habitat is a nonprofit organization that works throughout Schenectady County to bring generous donors and hardworking volunteers together with qualified, working families. The result is dramatic, positive differences in the lives of family members and in neighborhoods.

Description:

We are in need of simple things like hand tools - knives (box cutters), tape measures, saw horses, stud-finders, power tools, painting supplies (brushes, rollers, roller pans, extension poles), etc. Certain things like knives and tape measures, we literally can't have enough of. We would need these things to be in decent/new condition. There are probably other building supplies that we could take, but those are simple things that come to mind.

We've also welcome companies to donate their services to us (ex. a roof installation, etc). Anyone interested in donating building supplies or something related to construction could call 518-395-3412 at ext. 104 to reach James Gekakis our construction manager.
