Our last awesome ACT for January was truly a labor of care and compassion!!
This particular RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS was for a woman and her husband who had come into some health issues and other challenges.
The couple needed some interior walls painted which was a tall order but our TEAM graciously took on the challenge!!
Two volunteers, Dan and Matt spackled and sanded Thursday evening then the 4 man team painted the living room and hallway the following Saturday.
What an amazing team!
