People served

Northland has partnered with many local organizations in the central Florida area who serve our local community in a variety of ways. Each week one of these organizations will be featured with ways for you to organize a group and go serve locally.

Build a Habitat for Humanity “Harmony House”

Habitat for Humanity of Seminole-Apopka, along with Northland and several other houses of worship, will begin construction of a home in the Altamonte Springs community through an interfaith build initiative, appropriately named Harmony House. The house will bring together Christian, Muslim and Jewish faiths for the purpose of building a simple, decent, affordable home in partnership with a family in need.
Groundbreaking took place on January 29 and now we're ready to roll up our sleeves and get to work! That means we need faithful and willing volunteers just like YOU!
Opportunities to volunteer are on Saturdays and Sundays and typically start at 11 a.m. Upcoming opportunities to serve:
Feb 11-12: back fill plumbing trenches, volunteers will be spreading visqueen for slab prep on Sunday (5 volunteers per day)
Feb 18-19: framing exterior/interior walls (12 volunteers per day)
Feb 25-26: framing exterior/interior walls (12 volunteers per day)
Mar 3-4: set truss, roof deck, sheathing (12 volunteers per day)

All tools are provided for you and a project/site leader is present each day. Prior experience in construction is great, but skill and/or experience are NOT REQUIRED to participate! So, don't be shy ... come get your hands dirty and help us all build a home for a family in need!
