Volunteers recently revitalized five homes for low-income residents in Henderson as part of a Make a Difference Day service project. The initiative focused on essential exterior improvements for local seniors, veterans, and homeowners with disabilities.

Regular exterior maintenance and debris removal support property safety and neighborhood cohesion. This project provided necessary upkeep for residents who may otherwise struggle with the physical demands or costs of property maintenance.
Volunteers improved five homes located between the 1800 and 1900 blocks of Evelyn Avenue. These services were provided free of charge to qualified low-income homeowners.
