Bahamas Real Estate Agents Help Special Needs Home

The Coldwell Banker Lightbourn Realty family recently teamed up to improve the facilities of the Bilney Lane Home for Children.
Brokers and staff pitched in to erect scaffold, pressure wash and paint the covered patio area, including floor, ceiling and railings, as well as the picnic tables.
Eight hours, ten gallons of paint and lots of laughs later, the area was transformed from a grubby patio into a sparkling recreational/dining area.
The surrounding dirt patches were covered with pea rock and landscaped a bit to beautify the area and prevent the patio from getting dirty.
While there, our team took time out to enjoy a pizza party with the special needs children.
Janet Brown, house mother, was so thrilled with the results she invited everyone to return to enjoy a grill on the patio with the six children who call Bilney Lane home.
On April 28, we returned with homemade hamburger patties and the trimmings, and a couple batches or cupcakes and brownies.
There were lots of giggles and our team fell in love with the kids.
“The children really enjoy our visits,” said Heather Peterson, broker and president of Inner Wheel.
“They don't have family to come and visit so they really enjoy it when people visit and show they care.”
