Today we met at 6am…we welcome Credit Suisse interns today on short notice..glad to have them..
With that in mind..we are grateful…send as many volunteers as you can..we can use them.. no question…we have 100 volunteers tomorrow…we could keep 1000 volunteers going tomorrow..our goal..in a ny area, recovering from Hurricane Sandy..in an area that affordable housing is a dirty word..in an area where real estate is a commodity not a right..and people are burdened with most of their income to rentals, taxes, communiting etc…we can change this, we are every volunteer day, every closing….ever family in..
We see families in like today a closing on a home for a family in Somers…we not only worked on rehabbing a home and making it new and energy efficient..we work on making it amazingly beautiful and help the neighbors too…. We worked on five other homes up there…with rehabs…we helped do clean up projects..
We helped get hundreds of volunteers…and now when we close at 2pm..we change the families life forever..
That’s what we do… we work..helping people have homes, condos, and great neighborhoods is not a bad thing..it is a Great thing! Be it for veterans..or a carpenters family…a single mom and kids..a senior citizen..who cant pay the highest taxes or eat..we continue..
God bless you
