Spanish Lake Rebuild Day Oct. 7 to Rehab 4 Area Homes
This Saturday, October 7, the Spanish Lake Community Development Corporation (SL-CDC) is partnering with Rebuilding Together-St. Louis to provide needed home repairs to four low-income homeowners in the Spanish Lake (63138) community. With the help of over 100 local volunteers, the Spanish Lake residents will have something to smile about as these repairs come at no cost to them. This activity is made possible through funding from Rise Community Development, along with other financial donations from individuals and local corporate community.
“This work began as a response to our residents voicing their desire to remain in their homes as they age. Having the research showing seniors living a more fulfilled and happier life in their own homes reassures us that our efforts and resources are directed in the right place” said Angela Pinex, executive director of Spanish Lake CDC
The SL-CDC was founded in 2013 by community members, with support from St. Louis County, Christian Hospital, the Spanish Lake Community Association and the St. Louis Economic Development Partnership. The organization was formed to enhance the quality of life and create socially and economically healthy living environments in the Spanish Lake area by promoting and engaging in neighborhood improvement projects, including the provision of decent housing that is affordable to low-and moderate-income residents.
