Every day, we’re building something. Throughout our region, HDA crews are building new homes, repairing homes that make them better and safer and more capable of standing the test of time, and redeveloping whole communities. The work being done through the support of our donors, funders, and volunteers is breathing new life into the towns and neighborhoods dotting the landscape of our Appalachian Mountains.

While our work goes on day in and day out, we also host special events that allow community members, churches, businesses, volunteer groups from all over the country, etc., to take part in transformational building projects that not only educate the community about the work and mission of HDA, but also give folks who care deeply for East Kentucky and its people the opportunity to play an active role in shaping the region’s future.

You might be making home repairs for a local veteran or for an elderly couple who wish to remain safely in their own home. You could be rehabbing an existing home for a local family with a disabled child, making that home healthier, more secure, and an overall better living environment. Or you could participate in the construction of an amazing, affordable new home for a local family and watch their lives change right before your eyes!

Volunteering for an HDA event has many benefits, including meeting new folks, making new friends and connections, learning more about affordable housing, taking a stand for your local community or for the Appalachian people, making mountain communities even more beautiful and capable of lasting long into the future, and uniting together in a shared vision of a stronger, more resilient, and far more prosperous and promising eastern Kentucky.

Construction or building experience is not needed. Come by yourself or bring your friends, co-workers, classmates, church family, or team members with you and let’s see just what you’re capable of!
