Minor & Critical Home Repair - A Brush with Kindness(ABWK)is an exterior home preservation program that provides painting, landscaping, weather stripping, and minor repair services for homeowners in need - ABWK helps low-income homeowners, impacted by age, disability, and family circumstances, who struggle to maintain the exterior of their homes - We use volunteers, sweat equity, and no interest loans to make repairs affordable, helping low-income homeowners continue to live independently and securely in their homes - ABWK is a supplement to our core building program. It enables us to serve more families and increase volunteer opportunities - We partner with Aitkin county veteran service office, the D.A.V and Veteran clubs.
