The aim of the "Ça sera mieux qu'avant" project was to continue rehabilitating a family's home.

The 2 sons and the father live in 2 bedrooms, while the young daughter sleeps in the living room when she returns from her week-long BTS course several KM from home.

The house was poorly insulated and old

"Hot water arrived only after long waits, the old boiler didn't heat much and there was a lot of wind rushing through the house." Sr Marthe Roquebert

Once the funds had been collected, the windows and doors were replaced as a first step to quickly keep the house draught-free, especially in the bathroom and WC.

"The plumber was then called in in the autumn to change the toilets and install a new compensation boiler, so that the house could have hot water and heating before the onset of winter. Sr Marthe Roquebert 

The 4 members of the family who benefited from this project are very happy with the improvements. 
 "The home is more comfortable. It's also gratifying for the owner, who has been graciously lending us the house since 2019, and without remuneration when she has only a tiny salary to live on!" Sr Marthe Roquebert

Many thanks for your contributions

With Them, Thanks to You
