Volunteer FAQs
All our projects begin at 9 am and end by 4 pm. All volunteers must arrive on site by 9am. Sometimes projects end early but we ask that you commit to the entire shift.
It is important that volunteers start at 9 am and stay until 4 pm. We usually can not accommodate a “half day.”
COVER has a long history of encouraging the homeowner provide a lunch for the volunteers that come to work on their home. We will let you know if lunch will be provided or we may ask you to bring a lunch. Always bring a bottle of drinking water.
We provide all tools necessary, but you are welcome to bring your own.
You can meet us at the Home Repair office if you want to carpool from White River Junction, but you MUST communicate and verify this with the volunteer coordinator.

People under the age of 14 cannot be allowed on any worksite.
People 14 or 15 years old can paint or landscape, but are not allowed on site while other construction is going on.
People 16 or 17 may participate in construction work, but cannot use power tools, perform excavation or demolition, or work on rooftops or at heights above 6 feet.
People 18 or over can perform all of the normal construction activities.

Yes! We invite groups to volunteer! It is important that we know exactly how many volunteers want to participate so that we can select an appropriate project for your group. Usually 6-8 volunteers per day is the limit. If your group wants a project on a specific day or date, let us know as soon as possible. We can usually hold the date. Email conor@coverhomerepair.org for more details.
