Today volunteers finished the handicap ramp for the home bound senior in Bloomfield! The woman test drove the ramp and was able to get down, turn around, and back up without any assistance! What joy to help her regain some of her freedom!!! Volunteers also finished repairing a second sink in her home. Now, we just need to get and frame in the screen door to finish the access from the porch. This project is being done in partnership with Navajo Transitional Energy Company and Northwest New Mexico Seniors. If you'd like to support Tres Rios Habitat for Humanity, please mail donations to: PO Box 324, Farmington, NM 87499.
