Every April, crew members work with the nonprofit to find an low-income Oakland homeowner with a house in need of repair.
This year, the crew hosted an adult-only prep day on April 13 and a carpet installing day on April 20. In addition, it will have two official work days on April 27 and May 4.

Most of the manpower will be provided by Piedmont youth and their parents, and the project is financed by generous supporters of PCSC in the community.
