RENOVATION OF 6939 S GREEN
THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE HOME FOR VETERANS

We have secured a 2 flat building in which the vision for Renewed Inc is to rehab and convert all properties to "There is No Place like home for Veterans". This first project will consist of rehabbing the property to house homeless veterans in a upscale environment and collaborate with the Department of Veterans Affairs to transition them from homelessness by addressing the mental or physical issues that they came home with after protecting our borders and returning home without the support they needed to change their views on the atrocities they experienced which caused issues like PTSD ( post traumatic stress disorder ) and caused them to fall out with family and become reclusive and eventually homeless.

What I would like to do is 2 things soliciting your help to create a beautiful space of living for up to 20 veterans in this first project of many.

1. Raise money and awareness for the rehabilitation costs

2. Enlist volunteers to help with the cleanout and rehabilitation to defray costs.

If you have a trade and would like to donate your time we would love your help and all time is tax deductible as well as contributions .

If you work with any construction companies and can ask their assistance in this project we will have a project meeting for all involved and enlist media sources to kickoff the project and televise it to bring to the attention of the masses the number of veterans struggling to find help for their issues and a SAFE clean environment with programs to rehabilitate and lead them to rental or prayerfully to utilize their benefits to become homeowners .

Here's how you can donate your resources :

1. You can visit www.renewedinc.org

2. OR via the go fund me page with this link: http://www.gofundme.com/pm998q-housing-for-homeless-veterans.

3. Or sign up for the volunteer weekend to clean out the property . ( date will be posted) All volunteers will receive a t-shirt for their efforts (please inbox your size at least 2 weeks prior to the event )

We need carpenters , roofers , electricians , plumbers , and all tradesmen willing to assist. If you are a tradesman and interested in participating and would like to join the meeting and planning process . Please call 630-432-9395 for more information . Your time is tax deductible .

IF YOU CAN'T DONATE CAN YOU AT LEAST SHARE AND MAKE IT GO VIRAL.

Renewed Inc is a nonprofit 501c3 charitable organization and all contributions are tax deductible .

We look forward to to your support .
