Through the generous sponsorships of Humana, Inc., Fifth Third Bank, Greenebaum Doll & McDonald, and Lowe’s, People Working Cooperatively …in Louisville will hold this inaugural event for some 25 low-income elderly or disabled homeowners in the greater Louisville area. Applications will be reviewed on a first come, first served basis, so don’t hesitate to apply if you are interested in this event.

Who is People Working Cooperatively? People Working Cooperatively (PWC) is a 33 year-old non-profit organization that provides critical home repairs, energy conservation, modification, maintenance, and education services for very low-income homeowners throughout 13 counties in southwest Ohio, northern Kentucky and Indiana. PWC focuses on basic living essentials – heat, running water, working toilets, solid roofing and other repairs that keep a home safe and habitable. We also provide home modifications for the elderly and for persons with disabilities so that their homes are accessible, safe for the residents, and provide them with the ability to live independently.

Over the past several years, Humana has been a partner in PWC’s various volunteer efforts in the Greater Cincinnati area. They recently invited PWC to bring its program to Humana’s home city - Louisville, Kentucky. As the Title Sponsor for this event, they recognize the void in the local community for these services.
