Meet Our Homeowners
"I'm so proud of my home. I get compliments on it all the time when people do by or when they see me out around town. It looks like a new home!"
~Ms. Ruby
"My ramp is so wonderful. I don't have a bit of trouble getting out to my driveway now. Before I would drop off and almost fall on the ground. And, those kids worked so hard. They were wonderful too!"
~Ms. Lou
When asked if the homeowner considered moving because of the condition of the home...
"Yes I thought about pushing it over and moving to New York with other family members. But, I have lived here all my life...in this here home. So, I just prayed that someone would help, and my prayers were answered with Christmas In Action and the fine volunteers that helped me."
~Mr. Jackie
"I was so worried about my roof that I couldn't sleep at night. Then, praise the Lord for Christmas In Action. I now have a whole new roof and no worries about leaks, drips, rotting wood, and mold."
