General Information
If you know of properties that are available for building in the Aurora area (Aurora, North Aurora, Montgomery, Oswego), and are either inexpensive or might be donated to Fox Valley Habitat, please get in touch with us (call (630) 859-3333, or write to us at the address below).
Work generally takes place on Thursdays and Saturdays. However, due to lack of work, shortage of supervision or other circumstances, it is necessary to check the construction schedule each week before planning to work. Both the information line and the web site are updated with the construction info. by the end of the day on Mondays, or as the information becomes available. Work begins at 8:30am and ends at 4:30pm
Lunch is provided at the work site by a current Habitat homeowner on Saturday only. All workers are welcome to participate. A donation to cover the cost of food is requested. On Thursday workers may bring a sack lunch or go out. There are many restaurants relatively nearby.
Tools are provided at the work site, but the following can come in handy if you happen to have them around: Hammer, pencil, utility knife and measuring tape.
Reservations are not required for individuals or groups of less than five.
Please note that our insurance requires that workers be at least 14 years of age to work on the construction site.
