Project Flo has been in operation for eleven years and has had a successful year with over 80 volunteers working on six different projects and the parish center. We are happy to report that the Project Flo Association continues to grow as the word spreads, our talent pool also continues to grow. We are grateful for our talented carpenters, plumbers, electricians, and masonry folks!
Our mission has helped more families take control over their homes and give them the ability to take control of their homes and restore their faith in humanity. As a nonprofit that is funded exclusively by grants and donations, your generosity has helped Project Flo facilitate their effort and we are forever grateful.
