Working on a Project in North Barrington

A North Barrington family is facing the crushing financial hardships and personal consequences of the wife and mother's battle with aggressive cancer. There are four children in the family, three daughters and a son, ranging from ages six to fifteen years old. Their mother has been diagnosed with cancer twice, once when she was twenty two years old and most recently, at thirty six. The son who is fifteen has no bedroom and sleeps on a pullout couch in the sunroom. It is the mother's wish that her family can use the unfinished basement for the son to have a bedroom of his own along with a bathroom, and a playroom for all the children. The family heard of The Build Team through a local church and applied. We approved the basement project and began design and preliminary work in late July. Framing is completed and electrical and plumbing work is next.  There are currently volunteer opportunities available at all skill levels.
