How to Qualify

HOME REPAIR AND MODIFICATION FOR SENIORS

Many of our neighbors have worked hard all of their lives and now have become physically and financially unable to repair their homes. When circumstances make things difficult or impossible, we can help.

Well-kept homes strengthen neighborhoods, sustain home values and restore pride; yet illness, age, and other hardship can force people to forego repairs. This is why Project Houseworks offers the Home Repair Program and Home Modification Program.

If you think you may qualify for our services, please call the Project Houseworks office at 402-965-9201 or send email to info@projecthouseworks.org.
