Willie’s Story
“This is a happy, happy day. These are repairs that I would not be able to afford myself.”
~ Mr. Willie Rounds, Community Builders Recipient
Mr. Rounds was born in Cleveland, Mississippi and moved to Portland with his six children in 1975. He became a homeowner in the Humboldt neighborhood after retiring from Greyhound in 1996 and has been there ever since. Mr. Rounds porch was falling into disrepair when a friend told him about REACH’s home repair program.
