VOLUNTEER GROUPS PITCH IN!

A group of 10 volunteers from Tangier United Methodist Church in Virginia come and work the week of March 11th through March 17th on their vacation time to work on a Wilma destroyed home, replacing half of his roof, hanging drywall, finishing drywall, laying sub flooring in a bathroom and installing a bathtub. They also, repaired his porch from the roof to the screen. They worked hard the entire week in Clewiston.

A group of 30 High School students from Boca Raton Christian School students and 6 adults come for their Spring Break for the week of March 22nd through March 27th. The group worked on 3 homes, installing vinyl flooring throughout the entire homes. This group took the weekend off, and despite their bus having some starter issues managed a trip to Busch Gardens. They also helped with some demolition work. They worked in Montura and Ridgedill.

A group from the Presbyterian Church of Boca Raton returned (they have helped out several times before) for the day on March 17th. This group sent 10 volunteers to help install four windows, two doors, build a ramp and repair some drywall in Labelle.
