The Eisenhardt family is giving thanks this holiday season. The family received a new home in Machias just in time for Christmas all thanks to volunteers and donations. Dalton and Wyatt Eisenhardt, ages 10 and 8, suffer from a rare chromosome condition and the family simply needed more space for medical supplies and equipment. Since October, countless volunteers worked diligently to build the Eisenhardt family a dream home. Even though the home is complete, some exterior work needs to be finished. Anyone interested in donating can visit: http://www.post1460.org/ or http://christianyouthcorps.bfn.org/ .

Donations can also be made to:
The American Legion Post 1460
Sunshine Fund
PO Box 274
Machias, NY 14101
