CRWRC has been here, different CREW's each week, all month. They have been done an incredible amount of work. For Debra, a 46 year old who has lived in Clewiston for the past 33 years, they replaced her ceiling which was covered in mold as a result of Hurricane Wilma. Debra works for the school board and has for the past 17 years at Clewiston High School. Her income does not cover her monthly expenses. In April she suffered and heart attack, and often has problems with high blood pressure. Wilma destroyed her roof, ceiling and two windows. Her insurance covered nothing as the total of damages was less than her deductible. She applied to FEMA who gave her $340.00. CREW has raised the money from the United Church of Christ and found these volunteer, thanks to CRWRC to repair her home.

CRWRC also helped Bernadette, a 36 year old single Mom raising her three kids. She has lived in Clewiston her entire life. Hurricane Wilma destroyed her roof, windows, doors, skirting, drywall, Alum siding corner, counter top, and sink. In addition the shelves in her kitchen were really bad and moldly. She is disabled and has no income outside of her disability check. She had no insurance when Wilma hit, but did receive $1300 from FEMA which she used to make some repairs. The CRWRC volunteers used funds donated by CRWRC to repair the roof, replaced drywall and skirting and repaired the sink and shelves in the kitchen.

Eunice is a 68 year old retired woman living on social security. She lives alone and when Wilma hit her home, she used her insurance to make most of the repairs needed on her home, but it was not enough to repair her windows. CREW raised the money from Catholic Charities to replace her windows used our CRWRC volunteers to do the work. God Bless CRWRC!
78 year old Iris has lived in Clewiston the past 28 years. She is disabled and lives alone. Hurricane Wilma destroyed her roof, as well as her flooring, two front windows and back door. She used her insurance money to repair her roof, windows and door. We used funds from CRWRC (a little over $700) and volunteers from CRWRC to repair her flooring, and to paint.
