The St. Andrew’s Charitable Foundation recently received a $7,500 gift from the Home Builders Association of St. Louis and Eastern Missouri. The donation will help fund St. Andrew’s Project Independence program, which works to provide quality home repair to low-income seniors, age 65 and older, from St. Louis City and St. Louis County.
Area seniors benefiting from Project Independence receive a variety of services, including repairs to cracked walls, the replacement of corroded and leaking faucets and pipes, the installation or repair of locks, the replacement of doors, windows, bathroom vanities and other measures designed to prevent avoidable accidents and ensure that the living environment is sanitary.
“We are so grateful to the Home Builders Association for this generous contribution,” said Bernadette Groner, Grants Manager for the St. Andrew’s Charitable Foundation. “These funds will go a long way toward ensuring that the low-income seniors we serve can continue to live safely in their own homes.”
