About Impact the Valley
In 2004, Impact the Valley was born when a handful of youth group leaders were brainstorming ideas for ministry opportunities. The next summer we held our first home repair mission camp. Since then, hundreds of volunteers have worked on over 170 homes belonging to low-income families. Youth groups come together one week out of the summer for service, worship, and fellowship. They have a chance to make new friends, not just with other youth, but with the people they serve.
Impact the Valley 2026
Impact the Valley (Impact) 2026 will be held Sunday, June 21 – Friday, June 26, 2026 in the Northern Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. The area we serve includes the City of Winchester, Frederick County, Clarke County, and Warren County. We spend 4 days repairing the homes of low-income families in the region, and gather for worship in the evenings.
Who Can Attend?
What Does It Cost?
Many of our volunteers will stay in lodging that we provide. This year, we will be staying in dorms at Shenandoah University in Winchester, VA. The registration fee is $300 for the week. Scholarships are available for those who can’t afford the fee.
We also have an option for those who live in the area and prefer to go home each evening. The fee for non-overnight volunteers is $100. We provide 3 meals per day and T-shirts for all volunteers. Those who serve as site leaders and material runners participate for free.
