* Dress appropriately for working outdoors and wear sturdy shoes, hats, and bring sunscreen/insect repellent. Work gloves and safety glasses are recommended, as is a cooler with water or other beverages and a bagged lunch/snack.

REQUIRED to Volunteer:
First time Coastal Habitat volunteers should go online to, www.coastalhabitat.org and under the GET INVOLVED link, they should Sign Up to Volunteer and note at the bottom of the form that they are part of the NJ YOUNG PROFESSIONALS group. Under that same link, they should print out, complete and turn in on the day of your event, the Medical Information and the Waiver of Liability forms.

Donations:
Habitat is asking that each individual volunteer bring a voluntary $100 contribution to help us offset construction expenses. It will be a tax deductible donation.
Don’t have $100? Ask each of your Facebook friends to donate $1 or find sponsors at work/home. $100 can be quick and easy to raise.
