SERVPRO Creates Hope
8/10/2016 (Permalink)
In 2015 SERVPRO of Horry & Georgetown Co's developed a program called Creating Hope.
This program was designed to help those in need due to a sudden life changing event or loss that caused them to not be able to help themselves like they used to. We decided to take on small to mid sized projects around our community to help make life a little bit easier for those people who found themselves in uncharted waters.
Projects include but are not limited to widening a door frame to be able to get a wheel chair through, building a ramp to make coming home and leaving easier, lowering shelves and cabinets for those who are suddenly wheelchair bound and installing handrails throughout a property.
This past week it was the handrails that got the call when our candidate who just finished a 6 month long round of cancer treatments found out that she didnt qualify for an insurance policy because her back porch did not have handrails installed.
Our builders quickly visited our candidates house measured, bought materials, built the handrails and received tons of thanks and praise from our candidate. This is what our Creating Hope program is all about.
If you know of someone in need and they fit the criteria and live in Horry or Georgetown Co. please nominate them by clicking here.
