Our First Claire House!
What started as the dream of Jordan Parker, co-founder/President, became reality through the help of our amazing community.
In January 2020, Jordan had the idea to to take abandoned, old homes in the community and give them new purpose. This new purpose was twofold: restoring our community and helping kids with cancer. This was the beginning of Claire House, a new program by the Claire Parker Foundation to take these homes, flip them, and sell them with the profits benefiting children with cancer.
Many companies and community supporters rallied behind the project. They began to donate labor or supplies. We also had many community sponsors submit monetary donations to the home.
The home was gutted completely. See below for photos of the process.
By March 2021, the dream was now a beautiful, finished home. We were blessed to host our first ribbon cutting and open house. By the next day the house was SOLD!
We are so thankful to our supporters and donors. We would not be where we are without you! With the first Claire House officially finished, we are so excited to announce that our next house is already in the works. God is so good!
Thank you to all of our sponsors and donors!
None of this would have been possible without you!
