Who We Served in 2017
“This is the nicest thing someone’s ever done for me.”
Barbara Kurtz, homeowner
HELPING GIVES HOPE
Driving up to the home of Barbara Kurtz during summer camp was a thrilling sight.Imagine a front yard with a ground crew of 4 high-schoolers picking up shingles while another
8 to 10 are doing “demo” by ripping off old shingles and tarpaper. Barbara is a single woman and a good Christian whosehouse was in need of critical repair after a difficult marriage anddivorce. Her pastor told her to contact Good Neighbors aftershe tried to fix the roof herself but found the repairs beyondwhat she could afford. By the way, Barbara herself workedalongside the teens as part of the ground crew and dispensedwater on one of the hottest weeks in July.
“Restoring Hope by Repairing Homes” is our tagline. Restoring hope occurs when ahomeowner can see beyond her current crisis and imagine a day when she will be in position
to help someone else. For the hundreds of Good Neighborvolunteers this hope looks like a reminder of the blessings thateach has and the anticipation of being useful in God’s handsto bring love and dignity to those in need.
If you are new to Good Neighbors, please read these pagesand consider your place in making a difference in Chester andNew Castle counties. If you are already a friend of this ministry,
we thank the Lord for bringing you into the family and we look forward to more days ofblessing others!
