FOA's 11 th Trip
   has been canceled for 2021 - 
plan to join us for 2022! 

The FOA board met last night. We all felt, that at this time, our FOA trip to ASP this summer wasn’t something we are comfortable with. This was an emotional and tough decision. There are too many unknowns and obstacles that we don’t see overcoming to make for a successful trip.
We are absolutely looking forward to continuing our trips in 2022 and will start that process in December.
This summer we will be on the lookout for some community service activities here locally as well as the FOA cookout! We can't wait to see you all outside this summer!
Please remember that we are still accepting donations to help
Appalachian families get Warmer, Safer and Dryer.
The link on our website is always open!
 
As always, FOA is very grateful for your donation. Stay safe!

FOA volunteers travel from Connecticut to Central Appalachia and work directly with families for a week in the rain and hot summer sun to make homes warmer, safer, and drier. FOA has traditionally been able to go above and beyond by providing additional money directly to the projects we work on. ​
