The 37 women painted the inside and outside of the home at 503 East R Street in Yakima. The future homeowner, as single mother with three children, was really excited to see all the women come and help with her home. |

First Pres ladies get things done!
The property on 508 East "R" Street in Yakima didn't look to promising, far away, or close up! However, work is being done on this lot to make it simple, decent, affordable home for a family in need.
The shack on the lot has been torn down and the site prepped for the 9th house sponsored by First Presbyterian Church in Yakima.
The lot is finally cleared!
Executive Director, Mike Nixon, and Construction Supervisor, Kris Wilsey, survey the hole being dug. |
