Anyone who is a fan of Extreme Home Makeover may remember a November episode featuring a Toledo, Ohio family. The father is a firefighter and their family has adopted a home full of boys—some from Haiti, some from Toledo—in addition to their own.
Well, this already amazing family is paying it forward.
A neighbor of theirs is now struggling with their own family health concerns. One parent is no longer able to work as they are in dialysis, waiting for a kidney transplant. The other parent is struggling with work, managing family appointments, etc., all with only one car.
Wonderful news! The EHM family has pledged dinner to their neighbors twice per week as well as finding them a car! Another firefighter had a used vehicle he was happy to donate to this well deserving family. They were happy to say that with the community gathering to help them in their time of need, they pledged to “pay it forward” for the rest of their lives.
We can all learn a lesson from this beautiful, caring family.
