Grand Rapids Builders Spend the Day Repairing Homes in Their Community

Members of the Home and Building Association of Greater Grand Rapids in Michigan donated time, materials and labor to repair the homes of low-income and physically challenged home owners this past Saturday during their 13th Annual Community Repair Day. The event was jointly sponsored by Home Repair Services of Kent County.

The maintenance repairs included: installing wheelchair ramps, rebuilding porches, patching drywall and roofs, replacing windows, exterior painting and electrical upgrading.

More than 400 homes have been repaired since the annual community service project was initiated in 1992 and well over 150 members of the association have participated.

“Association members feel this is one great example of our commitment to your community’s well being,” said Judy Barnes, the association’s vice president and CEO.
