Behind the Scenes: The Making of “Real Stories of Hope”

September 17, 2024

We are thrilled to share a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of our latest video project, Real Stories of Hope: How Happy 2 be Home Changes Lives.

Creating this video was a true team effort, capturing the heart of our mission: we build, we help, we care. We wanted to go beyond just telling our story, we wanted to show the real-world impact that home modifications have on the families we serve.

How the Video Shoot Came to Life

We were fortunate to partner with professional videographer and creative director Nick Savino of NGS Productions. Nick’s expertise and storytelling approach were invaluable in capturing the emotional and practical impact of our work.

The project involved a series of site visits and interviews. Board members Susan Wendel, Scott Hamrick, and JT Clark kicked off the process by sharing the organization’s vision and core mission. From there, Nick and board member Carol Savino visited the homes of three of our wonderful families—Kevin Nguyen’s family, Candace Scott’s family, and Katrina Moran’s family.

These home visits were a heartwarming experience. Seeing the renovations, such as bathroom remodels and wheelchair ramps in action helped highlight how these changes do more than just improve accessibility; they restore dignity, safety, and independence for families navigating the challenges of caring for a child with chronic illness.

Who Was Involved?

This project was truly collaborative:

  • The Production Team: A special thank you to Nick Savino for his professional work and dedication to capturing these stories.
  • Our Board: Thank you to board members Susan, Scott, JT, and Carol for their time in sharing the H2bH mission and for facilitating these important family interviews.
  • Our Families: Most importantly, we are deeply grateful to Kevin, Candace, Katrina, and their families for welcoming us into their homes, sharing their journeys, and highlighting the difference that community support can make.

Watch the Finished Video

The result is a powerful look at how H2bH steps in to reduce daily stress for families who need it most. You can watch Real Stories of Hope: How Happy 2 be Home Changes Lives on our YouTube page.

We hope this video inspires you as much as it has inspired us. Thank you for your continued support, which makes these life-changing modifications possible.
