PEYTON, Colo. — With continuing support from Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.-based NationsRent and hundreds of other supporters and volunteers, “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” built the Barrett family of Peyton, Colo., a new prairie-style home in an episode that aired recently on the ABC.

Billy Jack Barrett, manager of the Air Force Academy Equestrian Center, and his wife, Anne, take in and care for difficult horses from across the country. At the same time, the couple has applied their talent and compassion to troubled children. The Barrett's only challenge to adopting more children is that their small, 101-year-old farmhouse could not fit any more by law.

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” staff, Keller Homes, and an army of volunteers and donors equipped with light and heavy equipment provided by NationsRent, built a new home for the Barretts.
