Community Spotlight: Fun and Hard Work for a Purpose
Mei Ling Liu and her small band of friends gathered to help the Hammetts paint their master bedroom and redo the bathrooms. Although seemingly minor tasks, these "upgrades" were never afforded to the Hammetts, who have spent the better part of the past 20 years taking care of a constant flow of medically fragile children.
Mei Ling Liu first contacted Dream House in 2008, as a representative of the Korean American Coalition, in hopes of identifying a community service project. Via the Dream House Family for Keeps® Bridging the Gap program, Dream House acted as a liaison to connect Mei and her friends with Ken and Judy Hammett. Now this group of friends have performed many volunteers projects to help Dream House.
