More about this Home Makeover

"Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" arrived in Buffalo, New York Saturday November 7, 2009 to meet Delores Powell, a Jamaican immigrant and community activist whose home is barely livable despite the work and repairs she has poured into it over the past five and a half years. In just seven days, team leader Ty Pennington, the design team, and hundreds of local volunteers lead by David Homes, will rebuild the crumbling home of Delores and her four children - providing them with the solid foundation with which to build and support their dreams.

Well the good news is that the new home being built for this family will bring up the values as long as the rest of the neighborhood improves along side this home. There are almost 4,000 volunteers working on this project, so hopefully the love will spread throughout the neighborhood.
