I have yet to be involve in an actual even, hopefully the next event in a couple of weeks. However, the time spent during several fundraising events, I have experienced the energy & excitement of the organization. These people are very sincere in their commitment to help those less fortunate. We can all sense when an individual or organization is out to benefit themselves, ReFit is truly out to benefit those in need.
Sometimes you have to be talked into things that are good for you and for me, it was a great growing experience from volunteer to committee chair to board member. I have no words for how important ReFIT has become in my life. It is my community service, it humbles me and touches my heart to see how not just the clients' families are changed, but extended families, neighbors and friends as well.
For these individuals, their disability impacts their safety, connection to their community, self esteem, emotional well being, etc, etc. and ReFIT doesn't just install a ramp or grab bar for them, they give them access to all those things.
Refit is an amazing organization to be associated with and my company has donated many items to help people stay in their homes. I have the honor to know many of the volunteers on both a personal and professional basis and integrity abounds with these individuals. I find it so amazing that so many different people within the building industry are able to come together with a single goal in mind and that is to make someone's life more comfortable. BRAVO to Refit!!
This organization is exceptionally dedicated to its cause of helping those with physical and financial challenges. Specifically, the work ReFIT does to keep people in their homes safely is not only life-changing, but life-saving. I am continually amazed at how this organization is able to make changes for others that enable them to be happier and healthier for the rest of their lives.
It has been my distinct pleasure to work with the fellow board members and givers to ReFit. The people that I find myself surrounded by are many of the most amazing people I have ever known. Integrity abounds in this organization. Everyone is extremely dedicated to the best outcome for our recipients of our outreach. The people we have helped have had unimaginable hardship and it is the least we can do to make their lives more livable and viable for the whole family.
I am so proud of our accomplishments!!!! Three cheers for ReFit!!!1
My company and I have volunteered for years for ReFIT. It's so easy to make such a big difference in someone's life, and ReFIT makes it easy to jump in and help at what ever level of commitment you can do. Thanks to all those that make ReFIT work! I invite anyone to come and change somebody's life.
I had the distinct honor to serve as a board member to this organization for three years. Having Multiple Sclerosis myself, I shared some of the frustrations and concerns that many of their clients felt. The work done by this organization solved so many of those issues for so many clients. This organization has taken remodeling for disabled low income homeowners to higher level and continues to make improvements to serve more clients in need. I commend them for the dedication of their board members, their volunteers and their donors. ReFIT ROCKS! .... Candy
ReFit helps families with disabled family members to be able to stay in their homes. My husband had a major stroke and I found out about this remarkable organization from a neighbor who's daughter volunteers there. We live in a very old home that has one bathroom that is extremely small, with a very large bathtub. We could not bathe him without alot of shuffling and trying to get his legs over the very tall side of the tub which took two people to do and extremly painful for him.
They came out with several contractors to figure out what could be done. ReFit remodeled the bathroom and it is beautiful, with a completely tiled walk in shower and ADA toilet. Everything now has grab bars and is designed for him to be able to bathe and take care of all his personal grooming.
I can not say enough about this wonderful organization from the first phone call to them, to all the volunteers, contractors and all of the other people involved until the completion. Everyone was so nice and caring, helpful with all our questions, and I can't thank them enough to allow us be be able to stay in our home.
