A Fort Myers family will receive a new home thanks to a partnership between nonprofit Lee BIA Builders Care, local construction company Stevens Construction and various community partners. Myrtle Dillard, a longtime Fort Myers resident, has lived in her home for 33 years. Originally built in 1927, the 958-square-foot, two-bedroom, one-bathroom dwelling had fallen into a state of disrepair. As time passed, the family faced significant challenges in maintaining the home, which not only requires extensive repairs, but also lacked necessary accessibility features, posing serious safety risks for Dillard, who relies on wheelchair access. Stevens Construction committed to rebuilding the Dillard family’s home from the ground up at no cost. Rather than opting for minor renovations, the company chose to rebuild the entire structure. Construction began March 1 and will take 60 days.
