Rotarians and other community volunteers donated their time and skills last Saturday morning to saw, drill, sand and stain 40 Cargo-style children’s beds for the non-profit Sleep in Heavenly Peace in north Houston. The finished beds will be delivered and assembled by volunteers when they are delivered to low-income Humble area homes where children are sleeping on the floor or sofa and don't have their own bed.

Dream “home” comes true for firefighters seeking cancer treatments

Jun 21, 2023

Captain Ponce-Lopez explains to Lake Houston Rotarians that he often receives calls from firefighters looking for an inexpensive place to stay while they are in Houston receiving cancer treatments at the Texas Medical Center. In 2009, Captain Ponce-Lopez saw the need for a small home for ill or injured firefighters visiting Houston for treatment. His idea became a charity called the Texas Firefighters Home and it has grown with the help of his University Rotary Club to include two leased apartments that are made available to first responders in need of housing while seeking treatment at the Texas Medical Center. The need is there for them to grow again and he is asking for your help.
