\u201cWe bridge the gap from what the government will do,\u201d Caruk explains. Example projects include building wheelchair ramps, rebuilding a veteran\u2019s damaged chimney, building a new, accessible garage and even installing an elevator system. Caruk says Renos for Heros does five or six projects per year, funded by the money it raises from event attendees and sponsors. RoadSport Auto Group was the main sponsor for this years\u2019 event and has been a long-time supporter.<\/p>\n

The guests of honour were the many Canadian military veterans in attendance from all branches of the service. Most had benefitted from Renos for Heros services in one way or another.<\/p>\n
