Bridges Work Experience Partners

What is a Work Experience?

Our Volunteer sites are chosen to target specific work related skills while allowing our students to give back to their community as they develop their own independence.  Each site offers a unique opportunity to learn social, employment, and independent living skills that can't be taught in a traditional classroom.

 Meals on Wheels

 

At Meals on Wheels our clients learn to utilize industrial dishwashers, put together meals for delivery, and at times serving meals to those who are able to come in person.  This experience is preparing them for possible employment in the food industry.  They work in a positive atmosphere gaining interpersonal skills and interacting with co-workers in an experience that will stay with them for a lifetime.

 

      The ReStore in Woodburn

 

When you shop ReStore, you help Habitat build! 

 

It's a good deal for you, your community and the environment.

 

A look inside the Habitat ReStore shopping experience

Shopping at a Habitat ReStore isn’t like the shopping experience anywhere else. Part home improvement store, part home-goods store, part resale store, each ReStore has a wide selection that changes often. You benefit because you get fantastic new and gently used home improvement items below retail prices. Folks in your community and around the world benefit because your purchase supports Habitat for Humanity.
