About:
IV began in 2005 as leaders from several churches and ministries became burdened for homeowners who live in substandard conditions because they are unable to pay for necessary repairs.
So far, 16 homes in Warren County and Winchester have received facelifts that include drywall replacement, structural repairs, painting, yardwork, flooring, and more.
How it works :
Project coordinators select homes that need repairs. These homes belong to low-income elderly or disabled people and are located in Front Royal/Warren County or Winchester/Frederick County.
Youth and adult volunteers and skilled professionals and supervisors will work on these homes for five days to do repairs and meet other needs as they arise. They return to their lodging each evening for worship, sharing, and fellowship. Because Impact the Valley is a local mission, volunteers can come for the entire week or just a day. All-adult teams are welcome.
IV strives to keep costs low for participants by seeking support from the community and other donors. If you always wanted to take your group on a mission trip, but couldn't afford it, IV can be the opportunity for you.
IV is a Christian event, but it is not affiliated with any single denomination or church.
Lodging:
Lodging will be at the Front Royal Family Campground. Cabin space for up to 84 volunteers and campsites are available. Cabin space awarde on a first come, first-served basis.
