The Jeanie C. Linders Fund® established There’s No Place Like Home National® (TNPLHN) to build homes in America for women who have lost their homes to natural or catastrophic disasters. This unique program partners with multiple career technical schools to build houses that will eventually become homes. Through these partnerships, students in the construction industry are given the opportunity to gain experience in their craft while making a positive impact in the life of another. Selected program families help each other during the rebuilding process by working in the community garden, cooking small meals, or tutoring a student that needs help. The program also brings a sense of community back to neighborhoods that are struggling to survive. TNPLHN believes that being a victim can be a choice and works to eliminate the concept by offering a hand up and not a hand out.
