Extreme Makeover-CU Style

South Carolina FCU helped one family here build its dream home-literally.

The credit union contributed $5,000 to ABC News 4's 'Extreme Home Makeover' project, the local version of the national hit television show that selects the rundown house of one deserving family, then remodels the home.

The credit union's contribution was put toward everything from wood and home accessories for the house to lunch for the crew and volunteers.

Credit union members James and Selena Hamm were selected because Selena is battling multiple sclerosis and is confined to a wheelchair.

The renovations helped make the home more wheelchair accessible.
