It's been announced the “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” will be
building a house in Buffalo on Nov. 7 through Nov. 14, 2009. My
church is one of the organizing groups. I've been asked to volunteer
and I'm considering doing so.

Has anyone on the group participated in any of their builds and if so
what are you feelings about the experience?


It's honorable to volunteer to help a family in need and I commend you
for it.

But ABC/Disney should be ashamed of not paying you and the other
workers. They will make hundreds of thousands of dollars from the
episode, if not over a million.

The trouble is that the minuted they pay someone they run afoul of union
rules and fair hiring practices and the like and it turns into a minefield.
