For and in consideration of the services of Be the Neighbor the undersigned, on behalf of a minor for whom they may sign, acknowledges and agrees as follows:
Medications for participants under age 18 must be held and administered by local church Youth Leaders. Be the Neighbor is NOT responsible for holding and/or administering medications.
Be the Neighbor experiences include partnering with independent social service and ministry organizations and participating in a number of activities, including but not limited to provision of direct social services, hot meal preparation, cleaning, gardening, construction, painting, repairs, and other activities specific to a particular program. The same elements that contribute to the unique character of these activities also can cause loss of or damage to personal effects, emotional trauma, or major or minor injury/illness, death, sickness or disease including COVID-19.
Participants will meet at a church facility and must be transported to and from activity sites; therefore, it will be necessary to travel by motorized vehicle on public roads. Participants are responsible for their own safety and the safety of other group members. Youth Leaders are ultimately responsible for safety and discipline throughout the event. Be the Neighbor staff may not always be present or immediately available.
My child is participating in be the neighbor with my knowledge and permission, and I acknowledge and understand there are inherent risks associated with be the neighbor activities. I will assume the risk associated therewith, whether known or unknown to me at this time. I release be the neighbor, its employees, agents, officers, directors, and partner organizations from responsibility for accidental physical injury, including death or illness, including, without limitation, COVID-19, and loss of personal property during a be the neighbor week. I further release be the neighbor from any causes, claims, suits, liabilities, or demands of any nature whatsoever including, but in no way limited to, claims of negligence, made by myself, family, estate, heirs, personal representative or assigns, now or in the future.
