More local volunteers needed for “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition”

by The AV Times Staff • August 27, 2019

PALMDALE – Calling all Antelope Valley residents… The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition team is building two homes in the Homes 4 Veterans housing community in Palmdale right now, and volunteers are needed in all capacities to help on site.

According to project managers: “There is a job for anyone and everyone! From contractors, people handing out water, and moving in furniture, to people that can help landscape, keep us organized and tidy, hand out tools, deliver items or just be the world’s best cheerleader by handing out hugs… We need your energy!”

“You will arrive at check in, where you will be given a blue Extreme Makeover t-shirt to wear. Then all we need are your helping hands. This is such a wonderful experience to be a part of. There is nothing greater in this world than helping others, especially our veterans. Let’s show the world how generous folks from the Lancaster, Palmdale, and the surrounding communities are by helping to change the lives of two veteran families forever!”

    How does your home become a candidate

      You have to have a sad story for why you can’t afford fixing your house on your own. Being lazy and not wanting to get a job dont count, some false story only California doctor’s will allow to be on disability won’t work. So you have to have a limb blown up in a current war, got ran over on the job and are paralyzed, the bread winner in your family is a cop or firefighter and died on the job. But they probably won’t do another home in California for another ten years. The last home in California was the LAPD female officer who was shot on duty and was paralyzed over ten years ago. So your best bet get a Folgers coffee can and start filling it with change from your purse everyday like the commercial, or refinance the home to fix it, or sell the home and move somewhere better.
