Habitat Build Days 2017 Get involved in your community with a Habitat Build Day! Habitat for Humanity’s Build Days program is an innovative, fun and meaningful team-building experience. It’s also an opportunity to promote volunteerism within your organization at the same time as helping to make the dream of homeownership a reality for more Nova Scotia families who need a hand up. Whether you’re a company, team, group, or family/friends, you can all get involved with Build Days. You will have a one-of-a-kind experience on a build site while you receive training and come together as a team to help us build a home. No construction experience or skills necessary! Habitat Nova Scotia provides everything required, including safety equipment, experienced on-site leadership, and a day to remember. Build Day groups consist of up to 12 people per site that will work on all aspects of the build depending on where the progress stands. The minimum donation for the day is $2,500 gained through fundraising or corporate donation and/or internal giving programs. 100% of your donation goes directly toward home builds. We have homes being built across the province in 2017, all in various stages of construction—Halifax, Oxford, Whitney Pier, and Bridgewater; we would be happy to set your group up on the site that works best for you and the timing of construction.

“I had such a great experience with Habitat for Humanity. It was a very fun day and a great way to get out and support the families in our community. Not only did we team up with an incredible organization, we also got to represent our company – who shows great pride in giving back to the people who help our business grow.” - Victoria Wilson, RBC Build Day Crew 2015
