SERVE THOSE WHO SERVES!
GH03-002
Building & Renovation Work For Christian Groups
Our Social Mission:
To serve Christian Groups with construction and building maintenance
services, carrying the mission of “Serving Those Who Serves”. The service
recipients include mission centres, family and youth centres, orphanages,
drug rehabilitation facilities, education and health facilities, churches and
campsites in different parts of the world. MMM’s regular volunteers offer
their building and renovation skills, expertise and advice for free, while
the service recipients with limited resources only need to provide building
materials. The benefited organizations could thus be released from the
burden of construction and building maintenance and focus working on their
core work.
Student Learning:
Students will learn more about the service work of the Christian groups, be
empowered by the groups’ life value and be equipped with technical skills in
building and renovation through this project.
Project Opportunities:
• Acquire practical technical skills in real building and renovation works.
• Utilize the skills to serve a non-profit making Christian organization in
Mainland China to support them to help the people in need.
• Know more about the beneficiary organization throughout the period of
service provision.
• Be inspired by the life experience of MMM’s regular volunteers and trainers.
• Have a challenging and enjoyable experience of working in an authentic
construction/ renovation project and gain sense of achievement from the
process.
• Minimize construction wastes to save the limited resource and protect the
environment.
• Accumulate on-site working experience.
• Help recruit young entrants to this profession since many experienced
renovation workers will soon retire.
