this is our little things matter program. it is our third project that we've been doing. basically, what that is, is an opportunity for surrounding small businesses and residents to get together and work on little projects around the neighborhood. this one actually is probably one of our biggest. yeah, it looks pretty big. yeah, but what the homeowner did is apply through a microgrant, so they pay for 50% and we pay for the other 50%. we get all the labor, all the volunteers, materials as much as we can. and then we help them fix up their house. and these are all volunteers here today? yes, they are. - oh wow! little things matter is run by the downtown windsor community collaborative, which aims at revitalizing the city center. sarah and her team believe that giving houses a new lease on life and beautifying the neighborhood is a question of comfort and security, but also one of pride. why does it have to come down? the gentleman that owns this house has been living in the neighborhood for a long time. his house is old and things are coming down, things are falling apart
