“The celebrities we partner with are incredibly genuine – they really want to do something kind for the people who have given so much to them and others,” said Jonathan. “Their dedication to these special renovations is so moving, and I think that’s why we all ugly cry at every episode.”

“With each new season, we continue to be amazed at the celebrities’ strong design eye,” said Drew. “They all put in the time to make the renovations perfect for the recipients, and working on these projects together is both fun and challenging. And, above all, the stories are just so heartfelt.”
