Blinds Of All Kinds was honored to volunteer and assist with the blinds on ABC´s Extreme Makeover- Home Edition´s new Austin home for the O´Donnell family. The story of Patrick and Jeanette O´Donnell, the parents of six children, is a rare and heartbreaking one. Five out of their six children have been diagnosed with and suffer from multiple forms of autism that range from simple communication limitations to severe physical and social problems. In this episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, originally aired on February 18, 2006, the O´Donnell family finally gets the needed security, serenity and sensory design to help their children develop their own sense of expression and purpose.

Everyone at  Blinds Of All Kinds and our wonderful team of volunteers were delighted to be part of such a worthwhile project, providing our expert services to the deserving O´Donnell family... and the blinds came out great!
