Become a MIFA Handyman

MIFA Handyman offers a variety of volunteer opportunities for individuals and groups (large or small), ages 14 and up. No experience or skills are needed for most volunteer projects. Our volunteer projects are good team-building experiences. Volunteers can help build ramps, paint, do yardwork, do minor construction, or help with special projects. MIFA Handyman is also always looking for new contractors to participate, as well as for individuals and companies who can donate new or used materials.
