One of the volunteers from a Spanish speaking church shared with us why they came. He told us that when they were building their new church building that many people came to help so they felt led to pay it forward. This was a hard working group that got a lot of work done in three days. They went to finish hanging the sheetrock in Whiteville. Some finished installing the replacement roof at our center before the winter rains set in. Teams painted at several homes.
The other teams installed lots of flooring, installed trim work, hung cabinets and started a new job by replacing floor joist.
Some of the many homes completed over the past 45 days are : Edwards, Bullard, Scott, Susanna McMillian, Lewis and Troy. We are waiting on grant approval so we can install HVAC systems in the McNeil and Blount homes so they will be complete.
Our goal this week is to complete the Allen, Nair, Howell and Becote homes.
