Amber's Home - TRT's 350th House!

Amber is a single mother who lives with and takes care of four children and one grandchild in the home that she grew up in. Amber’s home has been in her family for generations, but over time became uninhabitable due to disasters and an ongoing list of repairs.

Amber’s case was referred to us after Winter Storm Uri damaged her home in 2021. Frozen and busted pipes ruined her plumbing, wiring, drywall, insulation, and floors. This project was a significant undertaking, but our fantastic volunteers and supporters were able to get it done!

Altogether 110 different volunteers spent 1,248 hours repairing this home. Together, we were able to replace the roof, upgrade the plumbing and electric, insulate, hang drywall, repair the exterior siding, reframe rotted studs and joists, and paint. The home looks brand new and Amber and her family have a safe place to sleep at night.

Thank you to everyone who made this project possible! Our supporters' time and generous gifts allow our home repair ministry to touch the lives of so many deserving families. Will you consider donating to our cause? Every dollar you give will go straight into a home like Amber’s.
