Volunteers help Racine be more 'House-Proud'

RACINE — They scraped and painted, weeded, planted, fixed, tore down and rebuilt.
There were teens and adults, some skilled labor, all were volunteers.
For a week, starting on June 21, ACTS Racine Youth Ministry and the Racine Christian Reformed Church provided the labor through a summer services work camp.
Throughout the week, the teens and their adult mentors made repairs to 11 houses between the 1100-1400 blocks of Villa Street and Park Avenue.
The effort benefitted the “House-Proud Program” of Racine Revitalization Partnership, Inc., which offers homeowners home repair and improvement services.
Where possible, adults worked with young people on projects in Racine to sharpen their home-improvement skills. In this photo, Sebastian Rico spots the ladder for Chris Koleske.
