The selected home, with a family of six, required various repairs and clean-up: including fixing and painting the deck, new paint inside and out, new floor coverings, new flat screen TV, added furniture, remodeled basement to include another bedroom and extensive interior and exterior clean-up. By completing these modifications, the hard working volunteers were able to provide this family with a safer and more secure home.
