Edge Church - Community Transformation - Michael Rice Units, Prospect

In just one week in March 2010, Edge Church was able to completely transform four units managed by the Childhood Cancer Association in Prospect. These units are used for families from country or rural areas whose children are in Adelaide for cancer treatment. Families are typically housed in these units for between 6 weeks to 9 months. The renovation significantly helped improve the quality of the families' stay during their difficult journey. Work included painting, landscaping, provision of new appliances, furniture and equipment, as well as completely brand new kitchens and bathrooms.

As with the community projects we have completed in the past, the funds available for this project were extremely limited. However, we were again able to accomplish a great deal thanks to the generosity of businesses partnering with us through the provision of materials, equipment and goods, plus the hundreds of workers who generously donated their time throughout the renovation week.
