Build It Forward with ACE Houston


We're less than two weeks away from ACE Mentor Program Houston's 12th Annual Build It Forward on February 8th, 2025 at MGC, Inc.! Each year, students, mentors, and volunteers work together to build something with their hands that is then donated to local nonprofits. Past projects have included picnic tables, benches, sheds, and more. This year, we'll be partnering with Houston Furniture Bank in their #NoKidsOnTheFloor campaign by building (30) twin-size beds!

 

This event is often the first time for our students to use power tools, the first time building something with their own two hands, and the first time to work together with a team of other volunteers to give back to the Houston community. There are so many ways to get involved, so sign up today to help ACE Houston Build It Forward with our hands and our hearts!


Sign Up HERE!
