Washington Home Makeover
Builders Care recently started construction work valued at more than $40,000 in renovations to the home of Mary Washington, 80, and her granddaughter, Chauncy, who suffers from Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
Chauncy, at the young age of 29, was diagnosed with MS, among other ailments. Over the past five years her illnesses has caused loss of balance and heart and breathing issues, leading to on-going trips to the east coast of Florida for treatments.
In a collaborative effort between Builders Care, the State Housing Initiatives Program through the Lee County and local building subcontractors, volunteers are renovating the existing bathrooms to include handicap grab bars and fixtures, installing new air conditioning, adding a new utility area and installing new windows.
