Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity's special projects truck volunteers are our volunteers of the week!

Seeking to put God’s love into action, Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities, and hope. Special project pickups began in 2020 based on a phone call from a donor and a conversation amongst staff. The donor needed assistance emptying out a family member's condominium. A group of volunteers, with the guidance of several staff members, helped remove the furniture so it could then be sold in Habitat's ReStore. 

The success of this collaboration led Habitat to explore more opportunities like this. For example, in 2023, a local hotel was preparing to do a full remodel ahead of welcoming visitors for the 2025 NFL draft. They contacted Habitat to have them remove the furniture in stages as the remodel progressed. In the end, the general contractor was impressed that a "bunch of unpaid people" could get that much work done. 

These volunteers have been involved in a wide variety of projects, which, depending on the scope, can take several hours or several months. Regardless, the volunteers show up, ready to work and impress the donors, as well as get items back into the local community instead of a landfill. Since special projects began, it is estimated that the volunteers have helped to bring in over $500,000 in income to the ReStore. Proceeds above and beyond what is needed for the operation of the ReStore go back to the Habitat affiliate and construction team to build more affordable housing. Thank you to the special projects volunteers for making such an impact on our community!

This program connects mentors with parents referred by Brown County Child Protective Services in an effort to provide informal support to families who seek guidance and empowerment. Goals include: 

• Help parents develop essential skills that promote a safe and healthy family environment. 
• Offer emotional and practical support to enhance parenting skills and family dynamics.
