Lake Osborne Estate Volunteer Event this Saturday

We will be helping a family in our neighboring Association of Lake Osborne Estates. The Chamberlain Family will be moving into 1423 Crest Drive soon and we are asking all volunteers to join us to help get this home ready. The Family has been through a lot of unfortunate financial difficulties and one of their twins are confined to a wheel chair and has on going therapy. Their past house was a split level home which was just not suitable for a wheel chair.

We will be painting the inside and outside of the home and scaling back some landscaping, removing some bedding material and old fencing. Many minor repairs are needed such as plumbing, fixtures and several other items. Through all our various programs and partners such as Rebuilding Together of the Palm Beaches, Paint Your Heart Out, Neighbors Helping Neighbors Project and volunteers from all area's of Palm Beach County we can make a difference in this deserving family to relocate and prepare and environment for their child to thrive is a safe single story home.

The Chamberlains have been a family that has always been a part of giving back and now they need us. Lets show our spirit and caring through this loving and heartfelt Saturday of volunteering for a family in need of a helping hand. Again the address is 1423 Crest Drive just of High Ridge Road and Lake Osborne Drive.
