Started in 1990, Collegiate Challenge is one of Habitat for Humanity International's longest-running student youth volunteer programs. It is unique in offering year-round volunteer opportunities for teams of
youth to build for a week at various Habitat locations across the United States. Groups can choose
to volunteer close to their school or on the other side of the country. No prior experience is needed to
volunteer. All that's needed is a group of five or more students ages 18 or older (chaperones over the
age of 25 are also welcome). So, grab four friends or more and submit your interest application for a
Habitat Collegiate Challenge trip. Then prepare for an incredible experience you and your friends
will never forget! **Locations across the United States are available/Lodging and meals are available with some NOT all locations**
