DreamBuilders’ Leadership team and volunteers anticipated building 120 portable desks for students in the community on September 26 and October 3rd and exceeded their desired goal.
These desks will be provided to students in need in the local area to enable them to have dedicated work spaces during this time of virtual learning. In August, 100 desks were distributed and the need increased as the mandate to personally attend public schools has been extended.
A very special “thank you” to all the organization and individuals that provided materials, food, music and labor to help us accomplish this major build event.
The second organized portable desk build event will be completed tomorrow with a target of 120 portable desks for students in the community.
The first group of students that received the desks have enjoyed having their own dedicated workspace and are very thankful that the DreamBuilders’ Leadership Team and Volunteers took the time to help them in their educational endeavors.
The desks will be finished and distributed within the next few weeks.
Thanks to all the volunteers that graciously gave up their weekends to help and support the next generation of leaders!
DreamBuilders would like to thank all the individuals that registered to volunteer and help us build portable desks for students in our community.
All volunteer opportunities have been filled, stayed tuned for future events!
Volunteers are needed to help build more portable desks for students in need.
Join the DreamBuilders team as we work together to build desks and enable students to have a dedicated workspace during this time of Covid-19 and virtual learning!
The need is great, so register today to volunteer on Saturday, September 26, 2020 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. This volunteer event will occur at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, 12701 Hall Shop Road, Highland, MD.
