Dreambuilders is making folding desks for underprivileged students in Howard County.

They usually build homes for people in need, but they had to cancel trips because of the coronavirus. so, they met to decide what else they could do to help during this pandemic.

"We have two teachers on the leadership team, and the teachers said well, you know there are a lot of kids who are not able to go to school who don't have desks at home to study on. So, why don't we build desk for kids in need?"

A team of about 40 people is working to build 120 desks.

They will be distributed to two schools in Howard County.
