NBC's "Three Wishes" features new library
donated by ModSpace

NBC's "Three Wishes", a reality show in which music star Amy Grant makes the wishes of three deserving people come true, recently featured a segment in which ModSpace donates a building to a small Ohio town to use as its library.

The donation helps grant the wish of Nicole, a very bright 13-year-old young lady who lives with cerebral palsy. Nicole is a voracious reader and has already had several book drives. Her collection tops 6,000 books and now she wants a place to put them so that the community can enjoy them. Turns out, the town needed a library.

The building design was actually inspired by a drawing that Nicole drew. ModSpace provided the building used to create the library and Carter Oosterhouse (handyman from "Three Wishes" show) helped to design the exterior entry of the library to resemble Nicole's vision.

This episode featuring ModSpace originally aired on Friday, November 11, 2005. According to Michele Sevchek, our ModSpace representative from our Cleveland branch who oversaw the transfer of the building to the town, "the experience with the NBC crew and the show was wonderful."

Michele continues, "It started as a job, but by the end it was much more than that - it was personal. Nicole is a wonderful and very unselfish little girl. She is more concerned about her town and what she calls "the children" then for herself. Her reading room - Nicole's corner - is unexplainable. It is beautiful. She wanted a room where she can sit and read to others, and she received it!
