🇺🇸 EXCITING NEWS FROM VETERANS VILLAGE!
Our two donated buildings for our resident woodshop are officially on site and ready to be set up! 🙌
One building will serve as the main RHN/ Veterans Village Resident Woodshop, while the second will provide much-needed space for lumber, materials, tools, and supplies.
During the moving process, we did run into a couple unexpected complications due to original location and site deterioration that caused us to have to remove the porch and we will have to repair some of the boards on the bottom. Thankfully, nothing too bad and everything can be repaired and restored.
We are now at the final stretch before launching this program!
To complete the necessary repairs, install electrical service, and get both buildings fully set up and ready for our residents, we are estimating a cost of approximately $2,500–$2,750. This will cover the lumber and materials, electrical box and wiring for the power company to set up the connection and labor needed to finish the project.
We are SO excited to be this close to making the woodshop program a reality! ❤️
This program is about so much more than building things. It will give our residents an opportunity to learn valuable skills, work with their hands, build confidence and purpose, contribute to Rural Homeless Network/Veterans Village, and create handmade products they can proudly sell to generate income.
We have already been incredibly blessed by the generous support of our local Lowe's Home Improvement and Harbor Freight as well as the amazing donation of our buildings and many of the tools and equipment needed to get started. Now we are asking our community to help us cross the finish line.
🙏 We are asking for your support to help bring the Rural Homeless Network/Veterans Village Resident Woodshop to life!
Whether you can donate $10, $25, $50,$100 to help with funding, or simply share this post to hopefully expand our reach, every bit of support gets us one step closer to opening those doors for our residents. (The donation link is in the comments below or our mailing address is 323 E. Main St Kirbyville,Tx 75956) PLEASE PLEASE SHARE SO WE CAN REACH OUR GOAL AND SEE THIS MISSION TO COMPLETION 🙏
We aren't just building a woodshop—we're building opportunity, purpose, confidence, and a pathway toward greater independence. 🇺🇸❤️
Thank you for continuing to believe in the mission of Rural Homeless Network/Veterans Village and in the men and women we serve.
