If you live in the greater Knoxville area, can afford to take off a few days / all of the next week, and have any kind of home-building-related skills at all, Extreme Makeover Home Edition would very much like to borrow you. Alternatively, if you can provide any of their urgent needs, design materials, or construction materials, I am sure they could put it all to a good use as well. And, finally, if you are completely useless (like me!) there is always the option to donate to the builder/family fund, which is typically used to pay off mortgages or stuff like that. I do not know who the family is (not us), but the builder this time around is Grace Construction, who seems to specialize in assembling homes I could never hope to afford, so I get the feeling this will be a good episode.
Good folks. They did one here in Blacksburg a few years ago for a former world-class ballerina and mother with MS.
Agreed. We have watched the show from the very beginning, and are always impressed with what they accomplish… We may not always agree with what the people they are helping are doing (for instance, the recent one with the lady pushing for anti-bullying legislation), but at least they are generally working in a good direction.
