Ms. Arce in Second Ward

Ms. Arce has lived in her Second Ward home for 45 years. Her house is full of memories. This is where she raised her three children and now welcomes her four grandchildren over to play. During the pandemic she is doing her best to keep in contact with the seniors she met as a volunteer at Ripley House, and offers a dance class on the Internet.

Her home had many challenges, including the deterioration of the 30-year-old vinyl siding, mold, narrow doorways, plumbing leaks, and no hot water. Rebuilding Together stepped up to help with funds from Wells Fargo. With her home returned to a safe and livable condition again, Ms. Arce can dance the night away. “They did a wonderful job… I’m happy, happy with the job they did.”
