ORLANDO - Diana Garcia, one of 29 mothers currently living at Aspire Health Partner’s residential campus in Kissimmee for homeless women and their children, was beaming from ear to ear as she strolled around her neighborhood Thursday morning.
Deeply grateful, the 35-year-old mom of four kids, aged between 8 and 15, observed hundreds of volunteers revamping the complex called HOME, which stands for Helping Others Make the Effort.
Jr. NBA Global Championship’s athletes, who are competing this week at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports, were beautifying the outdoor garden, basketball court and playground. Orlando Magic volunteers, including Community Ambassadors Nick Anderson and Bo Outlaw, were painting living room walls inside several of the homes.
