We would like to send a special thank you to Wells Fargo, who has provided extensive volunteer support and funding to complete repairs for low-income homeowners in the Twin Cities. We have been partnering with Wells Fargo since 2009. Since that time, 995 volunteers have given 7,443 hours of service, and Wells Fargo has donated $460,000 to support our work in the Twin Cities community.
Our incredible ramp team recently constructed a ramp for a 69-year old veteran living with a disability in Inver Grove Heights. This ramp will ensure that the homeowner can come and go safely and independently from his home.
We were thrilled to host a team from the National Civilian Community Corps this fall, who completed a number of projects in the Twin Cities. The team made repairs to two ramps; completed an accessible walkway for a woman who uses a scooter to get around; painted a mobile home to prevent a woman from being evicted; built a storage unit for all of our outdoor materials; helped to complete punch list items and close out eight home repair projects; and helped an 87-year-old man move into an assisted living facility. Thank you to this team for helping all of these families have a safer and healthier place to call home. We are grateful for this high-impact partnership with the National Civilian Community Corps and appreciate all of their hard work!
Tickets are now available for our 2018 Flannel Fling, which will be held on October 25th at The Machine Shop in Minneapolis!
