Volunteer Recruitment

My name is Alyssa McFadden, and I am serving as an AmeriCorps long term volunteer with CAP.  What this means is I made a huge decision…to move away from my home in Philadelphia to the hills of Appalachia for an entire year!  It was definitely not an easy one to make.

Christian Appalachian Project welcomes long-term (one year) volunteers in January, June, August, and October. Our preference is for volunteers to begin in August or January, but we also offer admission in October and June. 

Searching for the next mission trip destination for your church or an alternative spring break site for your college or high school group? Christian Appalachian Project has the following opportunities for the 2018 Groups Season:

WorkFest (Alternative College Spring Break)
March 25-30
$200 registration fee, $225/person

In March and April, hundreds of college and high school students spend their spring break helping Christian Appalachian Project make homes warm, safe, dry, and accessible for low-income families, the elderly, and persons wth disabilities. Last year, more than 600 volunteers repaired more than 50 homes.

Christian Appalachian Project (CAP) welcomes long-term (one-year) volunteers in January, June, August, and October. Our preference is for volunteers to begin in August, but other entry dates are offered for individuals with alternative availability.

Are you called to the mountains? Christian Appalachian Project (CAP) has an urgent need for compassionate, mission-driven individuals to serve for three or more weeks at our summer camps. We are also seeking volunteers to serve for one year, beginning this August.
