Service


“You know, there hasn’t been a single person I’ve met at CAP that I haven’t loved.”

—A CAP participant describing volunteers

Christian Appalachian Project volunteers serve in a variety of programs serving the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the people of Appalachia. All CAP volunteers serve in a Christian Appalachian Project program, so though you may be repairing houses while your housemate is teaching, you are all serving the same mission. Typically, a volunteer will serve in one program for the duration of his or her volunteer time, though volunteers may also have an opportunity to serve in Disaster Relief or other programs for special events. When you join CAP, you’re not simply joining a particular program, you’re joining  a mission, and each of the programs below work in concert with one another to create a stronger Appalachia.
