PEORIA--Pepsi Beverage Company spent their time today repairing homes in Peoria's Southside. Nearly 25 employees dedicated their time to repairing damages to Earnest Hayes' home.
Hayes had many parts of his home that needed repairs such as his roof, front porch and some painting. He says that he no longer is able to make the repairs himself.
Hayes applied for assistance on his home through Peoria County. Habitat For Humanity helped on supplying some of the materials for Hayes' home. Pepsi also supplied some of the materials.
