I was just wondering if HGTV did anything special for people who need help? Maybe a holiday helping hand! My friend has been living in a burnt house and trying to remodel because their other trailer that was on the land burnt so they have to stay in the house that burnt the second time! that they bought after the first fire it has been sitting for years with no money to fix it they dont even have a kitchen and just installed a pellet stove with the help of some local people and business but they need all the help they can get and i watch your shows all the time thought that if you could help them it would be a great Christmas gift!!! They are going to have a rough time in the winters of Illinois!! Please help! If I was rich I would redo it all for them!! Thank you

You'll have better luck locally. If they own the land maybe the local Habitat for Humanity could help out if they meet Habitat's eligibility requirements.
