Information - Parent Meeting 3 June 2018

Virginia Beach is the largest municipality in Virginia.  It has a highly diverse population.  Even with a vibrant tourist season, many people, including many veterans and former veterans, live at or below the poverty level.  Those who do struggle to maintain homes and re-claim a sense of dignity and comfort.  You will make a lasting difference here in the lives of our residents as you join others from around the country in Virginia Beach!

At the Virginia Beach Workcamp, the group will demonstrate Jesus’ love and compassion in tangible ways, serving real people in need while working on projects like…

         Building wheelchair ramps and handrails

         Fixing leaky roofs

         Replacing gutters

         Weatherizing homes and trailers

         Reconstructing sagging porches

         Significant painting projects

         Interior and exterior carpentry

         Other home repair projects that the homeowner cannot otherwise complete

The residents who are eagerly awaiting your group’s help are low-income, and some are formerly homeless. Work that might seem common or basic maintenance to you is life-changing and desperately needed to them. And your group will be changed through their service to others. We hear about it, year after year…
