Today I'm going to talk about ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. For those of you that haven't seen the show The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is about a team that helps a family improve their house while the family goes on vacation provided by the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition crew. The team doesn't just pick anyone to help, they choose people that go out of their way for their community, have have a rare sickness, or have had a rough life to get to where they are today. The crew doesn't just stop at just fixing the house they will sometimes give the family money to help out with their financial issues.
I got to see the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition team in action when a tornado ripped through the small neighboring town of Chapman Kansas June 12, 2008.
I totally forgot about this show! When I was younger I used to watch this show religiously. My favorite part of the show was seeing the kids room being renovated. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteI loved this show! It was nice to see a positive twist to reality TV for once. For a Student Council conference I attended, we went to Chapman after the tornado and helped clean up the town. While we were there, we also saw Extreme Home Makeover working on the families house. It was a humbling experience and one in which I won't forget!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear that they are as giving in real life as they are made out to be on the show. It's a great way to give back to people in the community.
