Eleven construction projects were completed by 199 participants from 10 churches this past spring break through BOUNCE student disaster recovery, a ministry of the Baptist General Convention of Texas.
Projects included hanging drywall and insulation, painting, installing flooring, demolition and other miscellaneous construction in Houston and Katy, Texas.
Residents there continue to recover from the devastating effects of Winter Storm Uri and Hurricane Harvey, which hit the area in 2021 and 2017, respectively.
David Scott, director of BOUNCE, estimated the student volunteers or “bouncers” contributed 2,640 hours of labor over two work days.
