SOLOMON PROJECT
In the time of King David, the Lord spoke to
him saying that his son Solomon would build a house in honor of the Lord. Solomon fulfilled the Lord’s
command by building a Temple and a reign of peace followed. Today, the Solomon Project seeks to build houses
in honor of our Lord, recognizing that we are temples of the Holy Spirit. The Solomon Project was created by NGNS (North Grand Neighborhood
Services) and seeks to build affordable housing in the North St. Louis community. The affordable housing
is made possible through volunteer laborers, financial contributions and donated building materials. Volunteer
groups commit their time and energy on a regular basis under the direction of a qualified general contractor. These groups can follow their project from beginning to completion. “It is a rewarding
experience to see the fruits of our labor when the new home owner moves in,” said one of the volunteers.

Want to get involved?
· Ask
your organization or school to volunteer on a regular basis. Groups can volunteer
once a week, once a month, or once a semester depending on their ability. Group
sizes range from five to twenty volunteers and work is done on Saturdays from
9:00 am - 2:00 pm.
· Or,
ask your group or organization to raise and/or donate funds to the Solomon Project.
Solomon homes are consistently sold for less than they are worth, so fundraising support helps us to continue to provide
quality, affordable homes.
· Or,
ask others to volunteer. You may know someone who can help and would like the
hands on experience.
· Call
us or email; build@ngns.org
