Transforming Our Transitional Home!

We are overjoyed to show you the final results of the complete interior renovation of one of our short-term transitional houses, Kramer House, courtesy of IKEA and their A Place Called Home initiative!

Family Promise of Orange County was selected by IKEA to receive over $15,000 worth of IKEA goods to completely transform our four-bedroom, two-bathroom, home that is used to house our families in our Transitional Housing Program.

Below you will find the before and after photos, photos from the ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Mayor of Fullerton, Bruce Whitaker, and some photos of our newest family moving into the home last week!

Thank you to all the volunteers and supporters who made this project possible!
