Plan on a life-changing experience

The rewards of an ASP trip start long before your group arrives in Appalachia. The preparation itself can be one of the highlights of your program year.

Your group will spend much of your time getting to know the family you are serving - and you need to be prepared for this truly cross-cultural experience. Here you can download the materials you need to learn about Appalachian history and culture. You'll be fascinated by this glimpse of how others live, how they got there, and why they deserve and need compassionate help from the body of Christ.

For youth groups, even your fundraising can be fun, motivational and a real bonding experience - a way to rally your whole church around the cause. Here, you'll also find comprehensive fundraising tips; everything you need to make sure everyone can make the trip.

From what to bring to what to expect, it's all right here. So get ready. Get set. And give your group the experience of a lifetime.
