"All of these families came together to help because that's what we're all about," Jerome
Stephens said.
Rebuilding Together's Warner Robins chapter came together on Saturday to celebrate an accomplishment
of good will.
"My arms are just not wide enough to put my arms around everybody, but I just want to thank
everybody because I couldn't have done this myself," Lula May Thorpes said. "I thank you and I just love everybody.
I pray for everyone who reached out and touched my house."
With a $16,000 grant from Wells Fargo, Rebuilding
Together was able to repair a roof, replace carpet and doors, repaint and provide other repairs in three area homes, including
Ms. Thorpes.
President of Rebuilding Together Warner Robins, Jerome Stephens says groups like this are extremely
important to communites, especially during trying financial times.
