This month’s success story is brought to you through United Way of Southwestern Pennsylvania’s partnership with ACTION-Housing’s Sustainable Home Improvement Program.
Improving access:
“Mr. and Mrs. H. have resided in their family home since 1963. Over the years, the couple has benefited from various ACTION-Housing programs, such as enhancing their home’s energy efficiency. Recently, the pair faced a situation where a new boiler was needed. ACTION-Housing promptly provided assistance through its crisis furnace program.
During the workers’ visit, Mrs. H mentioned that her husband’s stairlift, crucial for his mobility between floors, was no longer functioning after a decade of use. Despite multiple repairs, it was evident that a replacement was necessary. Thanks to funding from the United Way’s Sustainable Home Improvement Program, ACTION-Housing was able to install a new lift, restoring Mr. H’s ease of movement within his home.”
