A press release:

On Friday, a New Prague family with nine children and the father, Sgt. Jonathan VanderWert, serving in Iraq, will get much-needed repairs to their home through a national program.

Sears, in partnership with Rebuilding Together, the nation’s
leading non-profit home rehabilitation organization, will be renovating
over 40 homes this year through its Heroes at Home initiative. Included
will be the VanderWert home.

Heroes at Home will re-make the homes of veterans. It is made
possible through a national fund-raising effort that enables shoppers
at Sears
both online and in stores to contribute to the cause.

 On behalf of all shoppers this holiday season, Sears will make a
donation for every credit card purchase up to $1 million and for every
gift card purchased up to $100,000.  Heroes at Home has
already raised more than $1 million dollars this summer and, in turn,
will help more than 130 families make home improvements that will
change their lives.
