A New Community for Widows, Carl Keyes Aid for America

Online, November 8, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Carl Keyes' Aid for America is creating functional and affordable homes for Widows only. The Accessible Home exhibits the ability to provide a functional and affordable home that overcomes the "facility look". All American approached the design by addressing the daily living challenges of safe and accessible entryways, inside and out of the house, limited reach capabilities in the kitchen, and bathroom accessibility.

The home demonstrates solutions using innovative designs combined with the latest medical device technology. This allows those facing a chronic illness or disability to remain independent.

The homes are 1100 square feet with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, with everything on one level. All homes are built by All American Homes based in Tennessee. They were instrumental in the Hurricane Katrina recovery and have been lauded by FEMA, due to the strength of the home as it can withstand winds to 155mph. Their green technology is at the forefront of home-builders.

Each home costs $60.00 per sq. ft., which is $40.00 a sq. ft. below market price and AID donates the land.
