Why Do You Volunteer?
I Volunteer & Donate Items Because….
– Agape House Volunteer
I’ve had a heart for the homeless for over 10 years. I grew up in a home of 9 people and remember always being hungry. The first of the month we always had plenty, but toward the end we would run out of food and other essentials such as toilet paper and we lived in a home. Agape house is a blessing to all ages and families. They assist in helping to restore them physically, mentally, and spiritually and to get them on a road to self sufficiency. Agape House is a light that shines into a family’s darkness to give them Hope. The LORD has blessed me with so much that I am honored to help those who are struggling and hurting.

Volunteer Spotlight
Service Day Sponsored by Lowe’s
Thank you for your ongoing support over many years!
In addition to them being instrumental during the poinsettia campaign each November and helping us as we honor our donors and supporters throughout the year, they have continually donated goods needed for renovations to our nine-unit apartment complex. Lowe’s has generously donated washers, dryers, hot water tanks, and much more!
On a cool Saturday morning, Lowes recently brought a strong team of volunteers and did countless work projects on the Agapeville campus! They filled our new garden shed with tools and shovels. Their generosity is greatly appreciated!
The volunteers built three sheds, moved bulletin boards, installed new mailboxes, moved furniture, covered drain lines, recoated paint lines, and put up new parking labels! Whew, the amount of work they accomplished was incredible.
It was a blessed day, and we truly appreciate you Lowe’s! Thank you!
