RTS Energizer: Linda Harms, Safeway

Project Leaders Rick Jones and Erica Strathern have selected Linda Harms as our RTS Energizer for the 2011 Safeway Project!


"Linda was our go-to gal for all things painting and with so many different tasks to manage that day, Linda and her daughter Tiffany were huge helps in managing our painting efforts in Shannon and Gabe’s home," Erica said.  "Linda coordinated painting in the living room, kitchen, utility room and the two children’s bedrooms. She was an amazing help and streamlined the huge task of painting nearly the entire interior of this home!"

Great Job Linda!

To see more of what we accomplished at the Safeway project, check out our Facebook page for some great photos taken by volunteers, and Erin Schedler Photography 's Facebook page for even more great photos of the day!
