“We’re completing work on two Habitat houses and have several projects in our ReStore where volunteers are greatly needed,” said Rob Selkow, Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity of Montgomery County. “In addition to honoring Dr. King by serving others, this is also an opportunity for volunteers to learn about families who volunteer to fulfill their partnership agreement as part our homeowner program.”

Pre-registration for the service day and liability waivers are required and must be completed online here.  Sex offender registry background checks are required for all participants and will be conducted by staff prior to the event.
