500 volunteers make our campus feel like HOME!

Well, we did it! Last Wednesday, 500 volunteers rolled in on buses and it was truly everything we'd hoped for. They planted trees and built trails, gardens, picnic benches, and fences. They hung blinds, stocked housewares and linens, and painted murals in the kids' rooms. They were AMAZING.

Thank you to all of our awesome volunteers, Board Members, and local vendors who gave of their time to make this project happen. Special thanks goes out to (in no particular order): Hands on Orlando, St. Cloud Home Depot, Novo-Nordisk, Holy Redeemer Council of Catholic Women (CCW), Lowe's Kissimmee, Fence Outlet, City of Kissimmee, Waste Management, Community of Faith Church, Kempfer Sawmill, and Becker Tree Farm.

Here are a few pictures (I'm also trying to find some "before" pics for comparison).
