I confirm that, except for conditions which may be described in this application, my home and the surrounding area is a safe place for volunteers. If requested, I agree to provide financial records to verify the income listed in this application, ownership of this property and insurance. I also understand that, because this is a volunteer organization dependent on donated services, materials and funds, Hearts & Hammers—Twin Cities, Inc., reserves the right to revoke acceptance of any home into its program for any reason at any time. I also confirm that any physically able person(s) residing in my home or visiting for the project day will work alongside Hearts & Hammers volunteers.

I understand that the people who may work on my home are unpaid volunteers; that few (if any) of these volunteers are skilled in the building trades; and that HEARTS & HAMMERS—TWIN CITIES, INC., MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT ANY OF THE MATERIAL(S) USED OR WORK DONE BY ANYONE ON MY HOUSE. I hereby release Hearts & Hammers—Twin Cities, Inc., and all associated with it, from all liability arising from negligence for any personal injury or property damage arising out of or relating to the work done on my house. I also grant Hearts & Hammers—Twin Cities, Inc., unrestricted permission to use, copy, reproduce, alter, display, distribute, publish, and/or exhibit any pictures, video or narrative in which I may be included through any means of communication whatsoever for any lawful purpose whatsoever.
