News BlogGood Morning Ward FamilyJune 26 2009 Having cast the adversity of her health and surroundings aside to run a nonprofit youth development and family center from her Erie home, Clara Ward and her family have been chosen to receive an extreme home makeover from ABC’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.” Erie builder John Maleno and his team from Maleno Development, the television show’s team leader Ty Pennington, Ty’s designers and hundreds of volunteers will rebuild Clara’s home in a mere seven days, enabling her to continue her incredible work supporting her neighborhood’s underprivileged children.For more information on the family visit the Meet the Family page.

I can't wait!!! Congratulations to the Ward family! And to the Maleno family...you're an inspiration to all!! THANK YOU for making this happen for the Ward family but most of all, thank you for allowing US to be a part of helping out. Comment from Tonia AlfieriJune 26 2009 As a volunteer and a faithful watcher of EMHE, I am thrilled to be part of a dream come true for the Ward family! Also, my heart goes out to the 4 other families that were not chosen. I'm sure it was a very big disappointment for those people after a long wait hoping they would be the family chosen. I hope they also will be helped in some way. Comment from The Ulbrich FamilyJune 26 2009 So glad to have the extreme home makeover crew in town doing some good! Congrats to the Ward Family! Comment from Bert StraubJune 26 2009 I am looking forward to getting to work. May God bless the Maleno Family as they Bless the Ward Family Comment from The Schwartz FamilyJune 26 2009 Good luck Ward Family and thank for doing your part to help make Erie a better community for all. All it takes sometimes is just one person teaching good morals to have it spread to others and help our children. So thanks for paying foward.
