Through the Housing Authority of Norwalk, volunteers identified a needy individual. By securing donations of paint, brushes, and cleaning supplies the organization helped refurbish the home of an ill and bedridden woman in her fifties. She was disabled and had no family to support her. Her condition and illness prevented her from maintaining a safe environment in her home.

With volunteers composed of adults, youth and children, led by VOC, Inc. founder, they went to work to give this woman the gift of love. Within hours, her home was transformed from an environment of disrepair to a residence that is clean and easy to get around. Walls were painted, trash was discarded, soiled carpeting was disposed, and carpentry was repaired. Furniture was rearranged to make things accessible to her medical equipment.
