Do you know a deserving family who could use help with housing upgrades? Now is your chance to nominate them for the Centra Cares Home Renovation Contest.

During the month of May, the Centra Cares Foundation wants to give away a full house of windows to a family in need, but they need your help to nominate a deserving family.

Last year, the Centra Cares Foundation had an overwhelming response, with entries coming from all over B.C., and they want do it all over again!

The opportunity to make a difference in the health, safety, and most importantly the lives of a deserving family is so important.

When people think of much-needed home renovations they look to the interior of their home. Often they neglect some of the most significant pieces of a home renovation project and that is their windows.

We know that home renovations can be expensive, so the Centra Cares Foundation is here to provide windows, valued at up to $15,000, to a deserving family.

To nominate a family (or yourself), simply answer the following questions:

-Why are you or the person you are nominating deserving of this prize valued at $15,000?
-What does this family mean to you or the community?
-How has this family impacted those around them?
-How will this impact them if chosen?

The Centra Cares Foundation will be accepting nominations until May 31, 2018. Nominate a neighbour, friend, family member, or even yourself by visiting the contest page, or on social media by checking out their Facebook page and sending a direct message to @centrawindows.

Video submissions will also be accepted. Don’t forget to share the news with your family and friends.

“We were one of the fortunate families to win the Centra Cares Home Window Renovation contest last year,” recalls the Cooper family. “The day they showed up to replace our windows we felt like we had won the Publishers Clearing House lottery. There was a frenzy of people in our quiet little cul-de- sac and they all introduced themselves with the biggest smiles. That pure joy they showed during the install is a memory I will cherish for a lifetime. This company does not just give back, they truly change lives. They changed our lives!”

Take a look at more amazing stories of the winners from the 2017 Centra Cares Home Renovation Contest. Stay tuned! The winner will be announced the week of June 25.
