Another Christmas in October

A Home Repair Assistance Program

Overland Park, KS - - October 10, 2009 - - Excel partnered with Solutions Bank on one of the coldest days of the year to participate in the Christmas in October home repair assistance program. The program assists homeowners who are primarily elderly and disabled, but also includes those with young children who lack the financial resources and skills to make necessary repairs. Excel Constructors and Solutions Bank teamed up for a second year and 29 volunteers worked diligently to repair two houses in Kansas City, Kansas.

The first home had windows replaced, windows washed, indoor plumbing repair of a toilet and sink, replaced trim, and painted the entire exterior of the home. In addition, the yard was cleared of overgrown vegetation, leaves, and debris.

At the second home our team installed a handrail leading down into the basement, installed a dryer vent, replaced a screen door, repaired a toilet, and hauled off massive amounts of brush from the yard. A volunteer from East Kansas City Electric repaired unusable kitchen outlets

Excel Constructors appreciated the opportunity to work within our community, and all of the volunteers that participated. It was rewarding to know that the homeowners were thankful and delighted with the results! We look forward to participating next year for one of the largest volunteer organizations of its kind in the United States .Please visit www.christmasinoctober.org for additional information.
