Help build a house (no construction experience needed!), take photos with your smart phone or dedicated camera at one of our volunteer gatherings or special events, help setup or clean up after one of our special events, take photos in our ReStore, help customers with donations or purchases in the ReStore, be a volunteer cashier and more! West Tuality Habitat is ready to involve you - and your group, if you have one! - in a variety of volunteering roles!

Our latest Women Build event was another rousing success and kicked off NEW volunteers helping at the lastest West Tuality Habitat for Humanity construction site! More than 20 participants, mostly women, joined the regular core volunteer construction crew, our partner families (soon to be homeowners at the site!), and members of West Tuality Habitat’s staff to help continue building homes at Countryman Estates in Forest Grove. An extensive photo gallery is at the end of the blog.

A family of five is moving into their new Habitat for Humanity home in Cornelius, Oregon this month, celebrated by West Tuality Habitat for Humanity staff and volunteers, their extended family and neighbors. Their home is part of West Tuality Habitat’s Rapid Homesteads project to provide brand new, double-wide, energy efficient mobile homes on rural lots to participating households selected from West Tuality’s Homeownership Readiness program. More than 50 volunteers participated in preparing this property for the Stephens' home, including students from Catlin Gabel School and Pacific University, our long-term core volunteers and members of at least three other Habitat partner families.

Habitat for Humanity programs are focused on everyone having a safe, affordable place to call home, and our critical home repair program is part of that focus. In this month’s blog, we profile the repairs we did for one homeowner, to illustrate the issues vulnerable homeowners can face and why West Tuality Habitat’s critical repair program is so important.

From September through November, 2025, West Tuality Habitat volunteers, including volunteers in the ReStore, are invited to participate in Habitat for Humanity's social media giveaway. This is a nation-wide invitation to all Habitat affiliates, and the top five submissions each month will be sent a Habitat branded backpack and may be featured on Habitat for Humanity International’s social media channels! You enter by posting a photo or short video, and some text, to social media, and using a special tag. Our blog has all the details.
