The spirit of giving will create a family environment for nine youth
Heritage Homes and other area trade professionals help Access of the Red River Valley build a new home in 100 days.
Access of the Red River Valley and Heritage Homes joined with area trade professionals, friends and employees to celebrate the ground breaking and the official start of a 100 day build that will create a ‘family” for nine area children and young adults. Fargo-based builder Heritage Homes and 17 local trades are donating their time and talent over the next 100 days to transform the former Harbor House site in Moorhead, Minn. into a three-plex. Each three-bedroom unit will be universally-equipped, and the three units will share a central learning center. “We started this project knowing that we want to continue helping teenagers and young adults with emotional, physical and developmental disabilities have their own place to call home,” stated Sharon Staton, Executive Director of Access of the Red River Valley. “We are building a structure that makes us a bigger family. We are giving them a home, not just a house.” The project is being funding purely through donations, working with both corporate sponsors and individuals. This project involves many of the same professionals who participated in a 100 hour build in Minot in 2006, as part of ABC Television’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. “After our experience with Extreme Makeover: Home Edition last August, we knew as a company that this is something we should continue, even if ABC is not here,” stated Tyrone Leslie, COO of Heritage Homes. “This time around, we are giving the gift of a home to a brand new family, a family that will evolve and continue for many years.”
