My grandmother, is disabled and she really loves her house, but theres no way she can pay for someone to come fix it. We stay in Cleveland, OH and I'm having problems finding programs where people come out and fix people houses up with no charge to them cause the city pays for it. I have no clue where I should go to find programs like this. I know they exist but I just don't know where I can search for them, or who I can get in contact with. So if anyone can give me websites or anytype of information, it would be a great deal. I would really like to help my grandmother get her house that she was born in back into shape.

Check with your local Community Action Agency. They will have programs and services for elderly, and income based guidelines.
Community Action Agencies administer over 90% of all Community Service Block Grants in the US (Federal grant programs)
Here is a link to the listings by state, just find the agency closest to your grandmother. http://www.communityactionpartnership.com/about/links/map.asp#Ohio
Good Luck

Check out the church you are going to...Most have programs to help fix and clean for their elderly and their disabled members.

Contact the city and county where you live. You can also look for elder support groups in your area.
