The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition bus rolled into town today and knocked on the Hill family’s door to announce the building and furnishing of their dream home in only one week! But Ty and the Extreme team need your support to help this very deserving family stay on their feet. Gift cards from local stores and chains are being collected at the Geneva Chamber of Commerce. These gift cards help the designers add the finishing touches which will turn the family’s beautiful brand new house into a home and a tribute to this Central New York family. Gift cards to be used in the construction and interior design of the home will need to be received by Friday August 22nd. Those gift cards and donations received after the 22nd or not used by the design team will be given to the family.Some specific Items needed for this Project are: Boys Clothing ( Gift Cards )Girls Clothing ( Gift Cards )Laptop Computers ( 4 )Digital Cameras ( 4 )Gaming System and GamesOutdoor FurnitureLumber suppliesLandscape materialsSodBlack Top surfacingTree RemovalChain Link FencingLowe’s and Home Depot Gift CardsAny home décor gift certificates ( Wal-Mart, Target, Bed Beth and Beyond, etc.)If you are able to donate any of the above items PLEASE contact Dustin Pulliam at [email protected] and he will keep track of the progress of the list as well as arrange for Pick-Up or delivery.
