TEMPE, AZ — A group of volunteers came together Saturday to help a Tempe widow and her kids fix up their worn-down home.
Cecilia Aguirre has been working two jobs to make ends meet for her and her four kids after her husband died nine months ago. Piling medical and treatment bills meant the house suffered.
Cecilia's oldest son, Ricardo Aguirre, reached out to his friends in the military for help. Veterans and other volunteers in the community answered the call.
"It means everything, it means the world," said Cecilia.
