FREDERICK, Md. -- Dan Ryan Builders, based in Frederick, Maryland, today announced their upcoming participation in Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Each week the show spotlights a family coping with a unique situation in need of a lifting hand from their friends and neighbors. This season's theme is "Heroes in the Community" with a goal to construct a new house in one week. "I consider it an honor to take the lead on this project and look forward to changing the lives of a deserving family," said Dan Ryan, President and CEO of the Maryland-based homebuilding company.
The Dan Ryan team continues to demonstrate their commitment to the communities where they do business and consider this another opportunity to be a good neighbor by donating resources and manpower to help Ty Pennington and the ABC Extreme Makeover: Home Edition team with this special project. Dina Andrews, President of Dan Ryan Builders Washington North Division says, "The miracles that the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition teams achieve on a weekly basis make dreams come true for families in need. We are overwhelmed to be able to provide a family in our area renewed hope and optimism."
The selection of the homebuilder is critical to the success of the project. Dan Ryan Builders will be responsible for procuring materials and recruiting the thousands of volunteers and subcontractors who will work 24/7 for an entire week to build a new home for a deserving family. Dan Ryan Builders also has a dedicated group of subcontractors and suppliers that have committed resources to the project, which will take place from November 7 through November 14, 2008 and will air in January, 2009. Among the participants are Northstar Foundations, David H. Martin Excavating, Schuster Concrete, J&S Concrete, Thompson's Services and Barrick & Sons Landscaping.
