Jesse Lee ASP

Jesse Lee ASP An annual mission trip for high school students and adults ... to transform lives and make homes warmer, safer and drier.

ASP is a national Christian volunteer organization that sends volunteers on weeklong mission trips to make homes “warmer, safer and drier” in West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia and North Carolina. Since ASP’s founding in 1969, more than 437,000 volunteers from across the nation have worked on some 19,000 homes. Appalachia Service Project is open to anyone who has completed their freshman

year of high school. Adults are encouraged to volunteer – both those who have teens coming along and those who don’t. You don’t have to be a member of Jesse Lee or any church, you don’t have to live in Ridgefield, and you don’t need to be an expert with a hammer to volunteer. Basic construction skills and safety rules are taught prior to going on ASP.

2022 will be Jesse Lee ASP's 38th year!
