2/25/13 - Organizers of an upcoming project are searching for local people in need of help maintaining their homes. Livingston County Labor of Loveâs 2013 Project Day will be held on April 28th. The event is held every year to mobilize volunteers to perform dozens of home repair projects around the county. Services such as yard cleanup, bathroom or kitchen remodeling, handicap-accessibility ramp installation, and roof repair are all performed by Labor of Love each year. Nominations for beneficiaries are now being accepted, and Project Chair Allan Lutes tells WHMI the event looks for people who are physically or financially incapable of maintaining their homes. Recipients of the repairs are chosen from among homeowners nominated by churches, community organizations, and service groups. Their homes are evaluated by skilled tradespeople and a committee determines whether the homeowner meets the criteria for Project Day. Skilled volunteers will be appropriately utilized, but unskilled volunteers are always welcome. For more information, visit Labor of Loveâs website by clicking the link below. (TD)
