BUILDER CAPTAINS/PROJECT SPONSORS NEEDED

Hutchins Family, Denver
            Steve has MS, is in a wheelchair and has only one arm.  He must be lifted in and out of bed and the bathtub by his wife.  The bathtub needs to be replaced by a roll-in shower, vanity replaced with a pedestal sink and the door to the bathroom needs to be widened.
            The Hutchins have a mentally disabled 30-year old daughter who lives in the lower level of their home.  The lower level bathroom only has a shower, and their daughter enjoys a tub.  The family is also requesting the lower level shower be replaced with a bathtub.  These changes would make a huge impact in the quality of life for each member of this family.

Billy Masingale –Parker
            Billy is 23 years old and was in an auto accident 12/05.  While in the hospital he contracted a staph infection which resulted in the amputation of his right leg, left foot and a thumb.  He has been hospitalized for a year and is finally back at home.  He currently lives in a hospital bed in the living room.  The family home is a tri-level which needs a stair glide to the lower lever, and a remodel of the bathroom for accessibility.   Billy’s father is a plumber and a family friend is an electrician who is willing to do that portion of the work involved.

Zach Neumann, Westminster
            Zach is a 22 year old paraplegic, hurt in a motorcycle accident.  He was discharged from Craig Hospital on January 9th and is in a manual wheelchair.   His father has built a ramp to the front door so that Zach has access in and out of the home.  The doorway to the bathroom needs to be widened, bathtub replaced with a roll-in shower and vanity replaced with a wall mounted sink.  Zach also requested that the cabinets under the sink in the kitchen be removed so that he can be more independent in the kitchen.
