There are an abundant number of organizations that serve and protect Cape May County residents, and they need your help. We count on them to be there when their services are most needed, and there is always an opportunity to return the favor.
Habitat for Humanity and countless others need volunteers to help them survive, and it doesn’t have to be a major commitment of time. This year, if you’ve not already committed to doing so, why not set aside a few hours to do volunteer work?

Habitat for Humanity Cape May has opportunities in the ReStore for greeting and assisting customers, cashiering, re-stocking, tidying and organizing, as well as aiding the business operations with graphic design, phone calls, data entry and other office-related needs.
