Lowes help the Madison Mountaineers

As part of their yearly tradition, the Lowe’s Home Improvement store in Ruckersville, Virginia did their Heroes Project on Saturday, September 21, 2019 just like hundreds of other Lowe’s Home Improvement stores around the country. 

“The goal of the Hero’s Project is for us to be a part of the community. Lowe’s invests $2,500 per store and each store has the ability to go into the community and partner with a non-profit organization that needs help such as refreshing schools…,” said Michael Comerford, the store manager of Lowe’s in Ruckersville.

This year, Lowe’s ofat Ruckersville is helping the Madison County High School refresh parts of their exterior and interior. Along with volunteers from the Lowe’s Home Improvement store were students and athletes from the Madison County High School. The store provided tools, equipment, and resources to the students and volunteers for the task. 

“We found out that they had a need that they didn’t have a budget for and because of that we stepped in and offered our assistance,” said Scot Satkovich of the Lowe’s Home Improvement store in Ruckersville.

The parents and teachers of students at Madison County High School only had good things to say about the project.

“I think it’s a great thing… absolutely wonderful. Kids need to be more involved in the schools looks and it bring school pride, so it’s a great thing,” said Krista Turner, a teacher and a parent at Madison County High School.
