HFH usually has a couple of contrator/professional construction volunteers at each build that try to coordinate things; sometimes they don't or they don't show and in that case things can get a little lop-sided in terms of who's doing what.
In most cases though, they stay pretty organized. Volunteer work of that kind certainly isn't the most coordinated of efforts, but any assistance no matter how small or large is greatly appreciated.
Even if one has ZERO skills, there's is always cleanup work and basic fetching/hauling that one can do; you certainly don't have to be a master plumber/electrician/roofer to take part in this.
Enough "soap-box preaching" on my part; I simply thought I would share.
I've done this for a while, so PM me if you're interested and have any questions.
