Individuals

There is an ongoing need for skilled and unskilled volunteers to do a variety of home repairs, so there are always opportunities for everyone to be involved! 

Saturday Work Days

Our general workdays are the 1st Saturday in St. Peter's Village; the 2nd Saturdays in Coatesville and Phoenixville; third Saturday in West Chester as well as Coatesville; and fourth Saturday in Coatesville. Typical projects include painting, installing windows, flooring, drywall, and insulation. Individual volunteers are led by Work Crew Leaders and Technical Advisors. To volunteer as an individual, contact the Volunteer Coordinator by phone below or email.

Monday Work Day

There is an additional opportunity for retirees to volunteer on our Monday workdays. We have a great group of volunteers who help to complete home repairs that are needed in between Saturday workdays.

 

We ask that individuals and groups schedule in advance. If you are interested in volunteering on a general workday or on a Monday Workday, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator by phone below or email.

More Volunteer Opportunities

You can be involved with Good Works as a "behind the scenes" volunteer, too. Each of the volunteer opportunities listed below are vital to the success of every home repair workday. 

Application Interviewer

Are you a good communicator? Good Works believes that building relationships with homeowners starts with the application visit. As an Application Interviewer you will have the opportunity of assisting homeowners in completing the home repair application in their home. Application Interviewers schedule their visits with the homeowner at a time that is convenient to the interviewer and the homeowner. Time commitment is two to four hours per month.

Photographer

Is your favorite tool your camera? Good Works has a place for you! Photographers take pictures of volunteers and homeowners at the work sites that are then used for various Good Works promotional materials and special events. Commitment is for one Saturday a month or during one of the weekday corporate workdays which take place between March and October.

Lunch Helper

Would you prefer to help behind the scenes? Lunch helpers assist the Lunch Coordinator by donating food and helping to serve lunches to workday volunteers and homeowners on one Saturday workday per month. 

Workday Greeter

Greet workday volunteers at the start of the workday.  Assist them as they sign in and with any other volunteer information that is needed. The time commitment is one Saturday per month.
