Champaign- It's been a huge week for the Montgomery family who will be coming back in just three days to a brand new home thanks to Extreme Make Over Home Edition. On Saturday at the University of Illinois, volunteers organized a benefit concert for the family's organization...
The Salt and Light Ministry.

In order to get into the performance Saturday, you had to bring three cans of non-perishable food for the Salt and Light Ministry's pantry, or families can bring a money donation. Salt and Light is a non-profit organization that feeds hundreds every week and with this benefit drive, it will give the Montgomerys a slight boost when they start their new life not only in their dream home, but with their organization.

John Montgomery, the brother of the reality show winner, Nathan Montgomery said, "the way we figured is if we can at least get the mortgage paid off, then he doesn't have to worry about coming up with the mortgage, plus what his taxes are going to be because they're going to be crazy, so we figures as long as he just has to worry about the taxes, then they'll be alright, and so far, it looks like we might actually get it paid off."

If you missed Saturday night's benefit, you can still donate food or money to any State Farm or Country Insurance agency all across east central Illinois all through Friday of next week.
