Rebuilding homes, communities and lives
By Scott Bowling  | | Team HVA takes a break from rebuilding to smile for the camera. | | HomeVestors' corporate staff members and franchisees joined other organizations and volunteers on April 29 in Dallas, TX to participate in Rebuilding Together’s National Rebuild Day. HomeVestors' personnel teamed up with Freddie Mac volunteers to help scrape, paint, and landscape the home of Faye Freeman of Dallas, who was one of 11 families that Rebuilding Together of Greater Dallas selected for the National Rebuild Day. While the workers dodged intermittent thunderstorms, Ms. Freeman was elated at the much needed home rehab. “I am so happy you all are here to help me,” she said. “My home looks beautiful again.” Because of HVA’s involvement, some of the HomeVestors volunteers were able to assist with a second house that was short on volunteers. As a result, two houses were finished. HomeVestors' volunteers included: Chas Carrier, Carrier Home Solutions, and HomeVestors' corporate team members: CEO Dr. John Hayes and his son, John; VP Team Development Ken Channell and his son, Matt; VP Marketing Mark Hagen; Director of Franchise Development, Jason Killough; newly promoted Director of Finance, John Bachmann; Regional Marketing Manager, Mary Frank; and Manger of Business Development, Scott Bowling. HomeVestors announced its corporate sponsorship of Rebuilding Together at the 9th annual convention last December in Denver, CO. Rebuilding Together is a non-profit home repair and renovation program serving low-income, elderly homeowners, individuals with disabilities, and families with children. Rebuilding Together is supported by contributions from corporations and local community programs. All repairs and home modifications are completed free of charge to the homeowner. The primary goal is to keep individuals living in a warm, safe and dry environment. Rebuilding Together of Greater Dallas is an affiliate of the Rebuilding Together national organization based in Washington D.C. . . .
