Help Strengthen a Bio Family
6
Normal Request
I am working with a family of 6, that has been through quite a bit of loss in the past few years. As the parents were trying to work through their grief, and be strong for their children, some issues have arisen, and been put off, around the house. First, and most importantly, the floor in their children's bathroom is rotten under the bathtub. It is still usable, however a prayer is said before the children bathe and shower. The subfloors through most of the trailer are rotten, and dad recently stepped through the floor in their hallway. Also, the front door of their home has been damaged and needs to be replaced. I would like to add that the parents do not like asking for help, and have been very appreciative of anything I have been able to help them with, so when they shared with me the extent of their current needs, I knew I needed to try and reach out to a larger group to help this family. Thank you very much for your time and consideration of this project. ***An explanation of the estimated costs. I received and estimate from a contractor of $1800 for supplies. And total job costs if performed by a contractor, to be $3600-$4000. Updated on September 25, 2023 by an Agency Worker

Mike: Is it possible to know the gerenal vicinity of the home? I have some guys in the Lynchburg area that may be able to help but depending on where in Bedford County this is it may not logistically be possible.
