Local Bakersfield central vacuum installer, Bob Norville of California Central Vacuum regularly donates his time and effort to many worthwhile causes in our community and he came to MD asking for a central vacuum unit for Cpl Evan Morgan. This young man lost both legs and part of his eyesight in Iraq and as a “thank you” for his service and sacrifice, Homes for our Troops has built him a new home to assist him in his new challenges in life.
Homes for Our Troops is a national non-profit, non-partisan 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2004 strongly committed to helping those who have selflessly given to our country and have returned home with serious disabilities and injuries since September 11, 2001. It is their duty and our honor to assist severely injured Servicemen and Servicewomen and their immediate families by raising donations of money, building materials and professional labor and to coordinate the process of building a home that provides maximum freedom of movement and the ability to live more independently.
Bob had been telling us of the great example Evan was but meeting Evan at the home last weekend energized us as we saw in him, not despair and uncertainty, but life and hope and excitement. M.D. Manufacturing, Inc. is proud to have donated a central vacuum to Corporal Evan Morgan, a hero who donated so much more for our country. Thank you all who have served in our military and the families who have supported them back home.
