Why we‘re doing it

Years of trying to “patch” up the problem has finally come to an end. The porch and stairs are caving into the basement and mice have infested the house. The home owner is a single grandmother with very little money. Her family is unable to support this project so it’s up to the extended family (supporters of this campaign) to help Deborah get a new porch.
