strategy...

The strategy of Freedom Builders is to facilitate cooperation between community outreach groups. Social service agencies make us aware of housing repair needs, local church bodies provide the labor force, our staff, manufacturers, professional contractors, and retired tradesman, collectively provide the free home repair services. In so doing, all spread the love of Christ. The ultimate goal is to facilitate long term spiritual relationships between local church bodies and the families who benefit from Freedom Builders services.

The Mission of Freedom Builders

To reach out to those in need JOINTLY with the Family of God and to share the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ

Strategy
Freedom Builders exist to connect the Family of God with the disadvantaged through volunteer opportunities in serving in housing assistance projects. Builders assess the need, evaluates the resources available and then asks that a local church group serve those needs with the assistance and resources that Freedom Builders can supply both in support and organization. It is the prayer of Freedom Builders that this service to the disadvantaged family would build a bridge between the family served and the church that serves.
