CAHR Program
Project #1 Completed
Janet Duman has lived in her home since 1983. She has a bad back and was forced to retire and live on restricted income. Her roof began to leak, and she didn't know what to do.
When she found our Clarkston Affordable Home Repair Program, she knew her prayers were answered. For a manageable payment and some sweat equity, her home was saved.
Click here to listen to a short clip of Janet telling her story.

Lewiston High School Seniors Day of Caring |
|
|
|
On Monday, August 30th Twin County United Way partnered with Lewiston High School to engage the seniors in a "Day of Caring."
The students were divided into small groups and sent to participating organizations around the valley to give back.
We were fortunate enough to have 6 students spend an hour in our ReStore. They helped organize several areas of the store and made things more shoppable for our customers. We enjoyed working with them and appreciate their help!
Go Bengals!
