Habitat for Humanity works in conjunction with Upper Valley Habitat serving members of the community in New Hampshire and Vermont. We send a small group of students (usually 3-4) to sites in the community to gain hands on experience and make tangible changes. Builds are every Saturday from 8:30am – 12:30pm and 12:30pm – 4:30pm. No experience is necessary. Builds for the Winter 2012 term are filled, but they will continue for the Spring 2012 Term.

Dartmouth Habitat creates a newsletter highlighting the activity of its volunteers including builds, fundraisers, and events. It's a chance to know more about the needs of the community, involvement of the student body, and goals of the organization. All newsletters will be sent quarterly at the end of every term.
