Rebuilding Homes, Rebuilding Lives

The 2010 Extreme Home Makeover is in the history books as a complete success! Nearly 100 volunteers came together over three days to accomplish so much:

• Re-landscaped the entire back yard, adding a new trampoline, a hot tub and a massive swing set.
• Organized and cleaned out the garage, making room for vehicles and storage.
• Added a wall in the basement to separate an office space and painted the basement.
• Painted and redecorated the living and dining rooms complete with new furniture, curtains and rugs.
• The kitchen was painted, a new dishwasher was installed and organizational tools were installed to make the area more functional.
• The bedrooms and bathrooms on the main level were painted and redecorated.
• The boys bedrooms on the second level were redecorated in fun kids themes and the attic was insulated for better heating and cooling.

And all of this was done through donations from individuals, companies and organizations! All of the money spent on the Extreme Home Makeover was raised by volunteers and not one dollar was spent from Journey's budget. Likewise, all of the activities for the family - meals, a Whitecaps game, movies, and more - were all completely donated by the companies and organizations listed below. We are so grateful for the partnership we share with these sponsors and their commitment to our community and to making the world we live in a better place! We can't wait for next year!
