Welsh joins NBC Universal in a local rescue project

Welsh had the opportunity to partner with NBC Universal and George to the Rescue, NBC’s version of Extreme Home Makeover. Host, George Oliphant heard about the devastation caused by the tornado that hit North Minneapolis on May 22, leaving more than a half-million dollars worth of damage in its wake.


The NBC crew along with Welsh Construction, FaciliTech, Martha O’Hara Interiors, Best Buy, 3M and several other vendors (local and national), helped makeover the cafeteria at Sojourner Truth Academy.


The work was unveiled on Monday, September 19th to students, faculty and parents of STA. A 30-minute program about the project will air locally on KARE-11 TV at noon on Sunday, Oct. 16. Episodes of the show can be seen online here.
