Who We Are

About Us

Sweeny United is mission work in our very own community.  It is the uniting of churches of all denominations within the Sweeny Independent School District.  Our utmost goal is to bring glory to God and to demonstrate His love as students complete exterior home improvement projects for elderly, disabled, and disadvantaged residents of the school district.

Sweeny United believes in building young volunteers.  Students are eligible to participate upon completion of sixth grade.  Junior high and high school students are placed in teams led by adult volunteers.  They work together to complete exterior painting and construction projects and to do yard work for residents who need assistance.

Students have the opportunity to earn service credits for various school and organizational requirements.  In addition to building servants' hearts, experiences in Sweeny United are valuable for scholarship and college applications.  Sweeny United alumni make their neighborhoods better places to live because they carry on in the spirit of the group throughout the year.

Sweeny United fervently prays that all who are touched by the mission week feel God's love.

Non-Profit Organization

Sweeny United is a  501 (c)3 non-profit organization financed by individuals, clubs, organizations, local businesses, and area churches.  Sweeny United has also received grants.

2022

Sweeny United 2022 was a blessed experience as more than  sixty students and their adult leaders went to work in the community.  The teams completed nine carpentry jobs, nine painting projects, and twenty-two yards.  In the process, a twenty-yard dumpster was filled with construction debris and yard clippings, and hearts were filled with love.
