The Southern California KDC Team partnered with NAWIC Orange County to assist in the renovation of an apartment at the Thomas House Family Shelter. KDC provided the cabinet installation and fabrication/installation of the countertops. For more than 30-years, Thomas House has provided rent-free shelter, including food and supplies, for homeless families with children. In return, each parent is required to work full-time and save 80 percent of their income, enabling families to build their savings and learn essential life skills. As a result, in an average 12-month stay, families are able to save a minimum of 2 to 3 months’ expenses and transition to permanent housing of their own. We look forward to more opportunities to assist this amazing organization! #kdcconnected #kdcstrong #communitymatters #weloveourcommunity #kdcunited #helpingotherssucceed #community #housing #team
