We are back!!!

After a couple years away, Woodworking with a Purpose is coming back in 2026!

We believe every child needs a space of their own. So, we plan to continue making and giving away desks and play tables for children to learn and grow at home!

With over 2,200 desks made and donated along with toy boxes for foster children and furniture for families in need, we hope this new year is filled with opportunities for us to share with our community.

Please check out this link to see how you too can join us as we file for our nonprofit status and gather the resources needed to help even more children and families in our area.

We appreciate all of you who have supported this project.

If you are looking for a worthy cause to help this summer, Freedom for Youth is working to complete their new 7,600 square foot children’s center which will allow them to double the number of children and youth they support each year.

The project is installing the exterior stone work beginning the first of July and will be adding siding shortly after that. The goal is to have all necessary work and materials fully funded by the end of July.

To donate now, check out their page linked in this post. You can select “Children’s Center Campaign” so that your dollars go directly to the building project.

In addition, their employment training programs at Freedom Construction Services and Freedom Blend Coffee continue to provide employment training and opportunities for young adults in the metro area. Like and follow their pages to show your support.
