What We Provide to the Community
The URI powerlifting team lifts a lot of heavy weights, and we figured that the best way to use all that strength we have is to help people in our local communities with household tasks they might need done. We offer a variety of services (listed below) that could be too time-consuming or difficult for some people. Our goal is to provide as much help as we can to those in need while also raising money for our team to keep growing and improving our environment.
Summary of Service Disclaimer
URI Powerlifting is a student organization at the University of Rhode Island, and any labor services we provide are part of a
fundraising effort to support our team. Our members offer limited, non-professional manual labor assistance only. We are not a licensed
company, contractor, moving company, or insured service provider, and we do not perform work that requires professional training, licensing,
certification, or insurance.
By requesting or accepting our services, you acknowledge that this is a donation-based student fundraising activity and that all work is provided by
student volunteers. Clients are responsible for providing a reasonably safe work environment, disclosing known hazards, supplying any needed equipment
unless otherwise arranged, and keeping children, pets, and bystanders clear of the work area. We also do not handle fragile, high-value, irreplaceable, or
delicate items, and we reserve the right to refuse or stop any job that we believe is unsafe, hazardous, or beyond the scope of general manual labor.
By using our services, you understand and accept the risks associated with this type of volunteer labor and agree that services are provided “as is,” without warranty or guarantee.
