GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – A place that helps families in Green Bay got some help of its own.
Freedom House helps homeless families get back on their feet.
Thanks to the Greater Green Bay Chamber and one its Leadership Green Bay teams, the living and dining rooms look a lot different.
Renovations included new carpeting, paint, furniture, and heating units.
Freedom House president, Nicole Schneider, tells FOX 11…
“Our family room is one of the only rooms we have for families together and that space is really important to us. So it’s where families open gifts Christmas morning, it’s where they gather at Thanksgiving with their small families and give some privacy and a feeling of home to where they’re living right now.”
Wednesday’s ribbon cutting for the new space also included a check presentation of $4,000.
Money and supplies for renovations at Freedom House came from a number of businesses and individuals from around the Green Bay area.
