from Wilmington that perform repair work...but not here. The Appalachian Service Project (ASP) is an organization where youth groups from various churches do repair work for one week in the area known as Appalachia. One local church, Pine Valley Methodist, has had youth groups going to WV and Eastern Kentucky for 10 years.
Having been involved with ASP for two years, these kids raise 100% of the money needed to travel to/from their work area including paying for room/board...which is basic at best. The two years I attended, we slept on the gym floor at a high school located in Bear Branch, Kentucky...along with about 100 youth from other churches.
Tom...there are youth groups
