Bringing a Workcamp to your community is a winning proposition for all concerned, especially your organization or caring comittee. Many of our Cosponsors are struggling with a backlist of requests for home repairs. Some are trying to do the best they can with limited funding. Others just see a great need and wonder what they can do about it. Through a Workcamp, needy residents get the home repairs they could not receive from any other source. The entire community is impacted by this positive, highly visible project in which we all work together to:

• Repair 60-80 homes for the needy
• Create better living conditions for your neighbors
• Boost pride in your community
• Bring together a variety of entities within your community—churches, civic clubs, businesses—for a meaningful community service project
• Bring thousands of dollars into your local economy through the sale of building materials, food, lodging, and more
• Generate favorable publicity for your organization with a “good news” story that leaves everyone feeling terrific
• Provide positive peer role modeling to young people within your community
• Send a message of caring to the disadvantaged of your community
• Help teach the leaders of tomorrow the value of serving others
