Risk and Release
I understand that there are inherent risks involved in any mission event and that I am volunteering for an event that includes the repair of damaged and/or potentially unsafe buildings. I understand that MATE and its partners do not guarantee my safety, nor do they claim responsibility for my safety or personal belongings. I/we hereby assume all risks related to the injury, illness, loss, or harm that may occur to me/my child during or after the duration of the event. I release and hold harmless MATE (to include its partners, officers, directors, staff, affiliates, and successors) in this mission event from any and all liabilities for injury, illness, death or loss/damage of property that may occur during the course of my own or my child’s involvement, including all travel during the event. The validity, construction, and interpretation of this Release of Claim shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maine exclusively, and that any and all claims arising from and/or related to this agreement or my participation in a Mission at the Eastward home improvement project may only be brought in the courts of competent jurisdiction of Franklin County, Maine.
