MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN A DAY |
House Captains
The House Captain is one of the most critical positions for a successful Rebuilding Day! House Captains become involved after a home has been selected and the scope of work defined by the House Selection Committee. They visit the home, meet the homeowner, review the work scope (budget, materials, and skilled and unskilled volunteers) and make changes as needed.
On Rebuilding Day, the House Captain is the site supervisor and leader, directing the enthusiasm and energy of a group of volunteers, usually 20 in number. Volunteers are both skilled and unskilled, with skilled tradespeople assigned where needed.
And, at the end of the day, celebrate a job well done!
House Captains may be provided by volunteer or sponsor groups, or may volunteer as individuals. Rebuilding Together provides assistance throughout the process, including (and especially!) on Rebuilding Day, for the approximately 50 House Captains; you are not alone!
The position of House Captain is an outstanding opportunity for those with experience and skill to maximize their contribution to the Rebuilding Day effort!
