More Information

Age Requirements: Youth (ages 14+) are permitted to volunteer, but must be accompanied by an adult (21+) who will volunteer alongside them and serve as a chaperone. Parental consent forms must be on file with WARM prior to the volunteer day.

Tools & Materials: WARM provides all tools and materials needed to complete repairs. You are welcome to bring your own favorite hand tools, gloves, knee pads, or other similar items that will make working outdoors and with your hands more comfortable! 

About the Homeowner: WARM's 5th Annual Veteran's Day of Hope, our goal is to serve the families of veterans. On this day, volunteers will help Ms. Wilma, an elderly resident of Wilmington who has lived her home for over 25 years. Her late husband was a U.S. Marine veteran. When he passed away, he was survived by Ms. Wilma and their oldest son. Due to limited financial resources, it has been difficult for Ms. Wilma to make some urgent repairs to her home. Please join us this Veteran's Day of Hope to support safe housing for Ms. Wilma and to honor a U.S. Marine's memory through volunteer service!

About the Repairs: Volunteers will help make Ms. Wilma's home safe again by repairing steps and an exterior door, as well as installing smoke detectors.
