Years had passed since Hurricane Harvey’s howling winds and heavy rains tore apart Dan Lee’s century-old roof in West Columbia, south of Houston. Then came the knock on his door.
It was Mosaic in Action, a nonprofit that has helped more than 450 homeowners and relies on an AmeriCorps community service program that sends young adults to work on projects across the U.S. The organization repaired Lee's roof and got rid of the mold left behind in Harvey's wake.
