Give Kids The World “Extreme Village Makeover” is Complete. Take a Look!

After 4,000 gallons of paint, 3,000 electrical outlets and light switches, and 100,000 sq. ft. of flooring material, and much, much more, the Give Kids The World “Extreme Village Makeover” is complete.

From Saturday, January 11 to January 25, 2014, nearly 100 of the Village’s 140 villas, which were in need of renovation, were fully refurbished with new appliances, floors, countertops and other upgrades thanks to Wyndham Vacation Ownership and many other sponsors.  (Click here to read the story about this makeover, published on January 8, 2014.)
