Paige Hemmis of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition Helps Launch Heroes at Home(SM) to Help Injured War Heroes and Military Families in Need

  What:   The launch of Heroes at Home, a charitable program of Sears
          Holdings created in partnership with Rebuilding Together, the
          nation's leading home rehabilitation organization, at the home of
          Army Specialist Ryan C. Major, the first beneficiary of Heroes at
          Home.

          Specialist Major was critically injured in Iraq, resulting in the
          loss of both legs and other injuries that will require extensive
          surgeries.  Beyond his injuries, Ryan was facing another battle to
          regain his health and independence -- his home was not wheelchair
          accessible, and he did not have the resources to make it livable.
          Heroes at Home is helping this hero by providing a wheelchair
          accessible bedroom, bathroom and elevator.

          Donations to Heroes at Home are now being accepted at all Kmart
          and Sears stores across the country, at sears.com and kmart.com.
