Overview

The Mount Pisgah Academy (NC) Project is one of our many efforts based in North America. Each year, Maranatha works with organizations in the United States and Canada to provide volunteer labor for various construction or renovation projects.

Mount Pisgah Academy campus sits on 205 beautiful acres. Volunteers will help with interior renovations of the school auditorium, including installing 300 chairs. Projects will also include upgrading lighting, carpet removal, carpet installation, and expanding the AV room, along with several other smaller projects.

Project Stats: 345 vol.workdays*7hrs*$30hr=$72,450.
