About the Northside Partnership

The Northside Partnership began in 2018 as the combination of three existing partnerships. The Clintonville-Beechwold, Dublin, and Worthington partnerships combined after building over 50 houses separately. The 15 churches making up the Northside partnership are located in Columbus, Clintonville, Dublin, Jerome, Powell, and Worthington. The Northside Partnership provides families with a great and memorable experience while building the highest quality house possible. Construction on the Northside Partnership has proudly continued throughout the pandemic. Thank you for visiting! 

Our Most Recent Build

January 2023 - Home Wrap Up and Dedication -  The sub-contractors were in to finish up the plumbing, HVAC and electrical. We came back for a final punch list and cleaned the house for the dedication that took place on Saturday, January 21. We are thankful for all the faithful volunteers and church representatives that came out to help celebrate with the family as they received the keys to their new home!

CURRENTLY THERE ARE NO BUILD DAYS SCHEDULED. 2023 BUILD DATES TO BE ANNOUNCED IN THE FUTURE. STAY TUNED! 

Our typical build schedule:

- We work on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. We begin our day at 8:15 AM and finish at 3:30 PM.

- Partnership churches adopt Saturday dates to build. Check with your church representative for your church's build dates.

- We start the day with a safety meeting, review safety procedures for proper tool use. Assignments will be given out at the conclusion of the meeting.

- Lunch is around 11:30. Most volunteers pack their lunch. However, Saturday churches typically provide lunch for the group.

Experience: Experience is not a prerequisite! We will train on the job. Willing hands and heart are all we ask.

Tools: Hand tools are provided for volunteers. However, if you have some favorite hand tools, feel free to bring them along. Tools to bring would consist of a hammer, tape measure, speed square, pencil, utility knife, and tool pouch.
