HOPKINS COUNTY, KY - Do you know someone whose home deserves an Extreme Makeover? If so, the producers of ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition wants to hear from you! Ty Pennington and his crew have been all across the map and they are ready to drive that famous bus into your neighborhood.

What does it take to be picked for an Extreme Makeover?

They are in search of real Heroes - people that have amazing strength and who have put their own needs aside to help someone else. In addition to Heroics, the producers are looking for families whose homes are in dire need of help. They don’t want to tear down a nice looking house. They want to see houses that look like they might fall down on their own!

To be eligible:
A family must own their own single family home and be able to show producers how a makeover will make a huge difference in their lives.
Interested families should e-mail a short description of their family story to: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

1. The names and ages of each member of the household
2. A description of the major challenges within the home.
3. Explanation of why this family is deserving, Heroic, or a positive role model in their community.
4. Photos of the family and a photo of the home
5. Don’t forget to include a contact phone number.
The deadline for nominations is April 8th, 2008. Don’t Delay!
