Volunteer Opportunities

Mission Teams

Jubilee Project invites individuals and groups to participate in the Mission Team program that works with area families on home repair and water projects.

Mission Teams come for the day, a weekend, or a week, and are open to youth and adults. Individuals and teams are encouraged to have the skills needed for home repair.

Overnight volunteers stay at the Jubilee at Flat Gap facility, provide funding for the repairs, and are responsible for their own meals.

What We Do

Programs include:

1) Food distribution through emergency and USDA foods throughout the month, monthly food pantry, and collaborative holiday meals for Thanksgiving and Christmas;

2) Access to clean water through drilling wells, cleaning and connecting springs, and installing water tanks, water purification systems, and septic tanks;

3) home repair for health and safety of Hancock County residents; and

4) meetings for women, children, and youth that include devotional time, crafts, and opportunities beyond Hancock County.
