Volunteers at Clear Lake Presbyterian Church are housed.in two large rooms, one for males and one for females. Showers and bathrooms are nearby. There is a very nice gathering area with a large screen TV and games. The kitchen and dining area are located on the first floor. We can house 25 volunteers at Clear Lake.

We expect most of the worksites to be within 10 miles of your housing.

Note: Our goal is to fill our bunks to capacity, so depending on the size of your team, you may have the opportunity to get to know another group of equally passionate volunteers.

Our church partners are providing free room and board to the volunteers. The registration fee ($100) is used to cover miscellaneous volunteer expenses as well as construction expenses. Checks should be made payable to “Fuller Center Disaster ReBuilders” and sent to:
