A young man was seriously injured in a car accident in 2006 and has undergone a number of surgeries since. The accident also impacted him psychologically with the result that some unfortunate financial decisions were made. No longer able to afford to maintain their home, he and his spouse put it up for sale and moved in with family. Unfortunately the furnace malfunctioned and some pipes froze resulting in damage to some walls and ceilings, impacting the potential home sale. There was no insurance coverage for this loss in a vacant home. They did not have the funds to do the cleanup and repair. Poor health prevented the homeowner from doing any of the work. With the help of the congregation’s Mennonite Disaster Service contact and a group of willing congregational volunteers, the damage was cleaned up. A MAX Canada Share Fund grant assisted in making the home saleable at a fair market value.
