Help Bring Extreme Home Makeover to Jacksonville!

Extreme Home Makeover really wants to "move the bus" in Jacksonville and has asked for our help to get the word out!

Do you know a deserving family - good people who always give back to their community - who is in desperate need of a home makeover? To nominate yourself or another family you'll need to send in an application along with a video by November 8th. We think it would be a pretty awesome thing for Jacksonville to be a part of!
“We are looking for the deserving people and inspiring families that America can really root for,” says Supervising Casting Director Adam Drucker.
What does it take to be picked for an Extreme Makeover? "We're looking for those special people who have amazing strength of character and never give up. Whether it’s keeping their chin up in really tough circumstances or going out of their way to help others. We want to help people whose stories have really affected their community or made a big difference in other people's lives.” Drucker added: "There are a lot of people who are heroes to those around them because of the way they inspire others and quietly serve their communities on a daily basis."
The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition producers are looking for families whose homes desperately need to be rebuilt. “We really want to help families whose homes present major problems for the family, those big issues that affect the family's quality of life on a daily basis. We want to find deserving people who just don't have the resources, ability, or time to fix those serious issues without our help.”
This season Extreme Makeover is also looking for families, who do not own their own homes, so long as land is available through other sources, a nonprofit, city or county.
