TRANSFORMING HOMES, EMPOWERING FUTURES
THE ECO REVOLUTION
We've figured out a way to turn homes in our communities into eco-friendly homes under ECO, which stands for Environmentally Conscious Outreach. Fathers And Blessings (NFP) is embarking on a revolutionary way to upgrade and modernize homes, making them more energy efficient. The benefit is to lower utility bills and living costs to increase the sustainability of property ownership in what are considered blighted areas.
BENEFITS OF GO-GREEN TECHNOLOGY IN HOMES:
A healthier home environment through improved indoor air quality.
A more comfortable home due to fewer temperature variations.
A return on investment through energy savings and lower maintenance costs.
A positive environmental impact.
A reduction in the use of natural resources.
TRAINING FOR YOUTH AND THE UNDEREMPLOYED

REVITALIZATION AND MODERNIZATION INITIATIVE
We have purchased a property at 14446 Park Ave., Dolton IL, and formed a partnership with South Suburban College's Building and Construction Department to rehab it into an eco-green structure. This will allow the initiative to bring this type of profound technology and innovation to the community.
We are looking to acquire additional properties to redevelop these locations and partner with our electrical and plumbing unions to ensure structural and code compliance, enabling us to achieve Lead Certification standards.
The purpose of the Go Green Project is to turn these homes into low-energy, cost-effective homes in low-income communities. With this revolutionary program, we propose to rehab these properties to be energy efficient, reducing energy usage by up to 40%. Our model home at 14446 Park is a precursor for future homes. These homes will have Lead Certifications.
