How Does it work?

Volunteers will do the work from the Church and community at no cost to the recipients. Volunteer time and donations of materials and funds will be gratefully accepted to accomplish this mission.

Identification of needs from within the church will be made from the deacons, small groups, and any Calvary attendee recognizing a need.  Needs identification for community members will come from trusted and recognized individuals from Tuscaloosa Emergency Services, Tuscaloosa Housing Authority, and The Tuscaloosa Prayer Network.  We will focus our community efforts on people in Hope Initiative Zones.   We will require release of liability from volunteer workers and recipients of our work.  We will take all necessary actions to insure safety of all parties involved on a project.
