What is Project Mend-A-House?
For over 25 years, Project Mend-A-House has been instrumental in enabling individuals to reside safely and independently within their own homes. The organization relies on a dedicated base of volunteers who are central to its operations, facilitating increased mobility and accessibility for clients. These volunteers undertake a wide array of home improvement projects, ranging from the construction of ramps and modification of doorways to securing flooring, repairing essential utilities like faucets and electrical systems, and executing broader home enhancements. Beyond interior modifications, Project Mend-A-House also addresses exterior improvements, including landscaping, debris removal, lawn maintenance, and painting, thereby enhancing the overall aesthetic and safety of clients' residences. These vital repairs and improvements are provided free of charge and are completed in a timely manner, assisting over 143 clients annually with approximately 450 projects. The organization's success is attributed to the support of business partners, civic and faith-based groups, volunteers, and financial backers.
