NW Area Disciples Volunteers for Missions

 No matter the season there are communities needing help preparing for or recovering from disasters.  As a service to NW Area Disciples and their local communities we collect and store volunteer information and pass it along to projects that you indicate.


Work trips would begin with travel to the affected area and may include overnight stays at a congregational facility (requiring each worker to bring their own bedding, hygiene and personal supplies as well as money for meals).


Please enter information below.  We will organize volunteers into crews and send invitations to serve as we receive notice about specific opportunities to serve.


From time to time, we will update this and we encourage you to do the same.
