�EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION� REBUILDS THE HOME OF A GIVING FAMILY WHOSE HOUSE WAS DEMOLISHED IN A PLANE CRASH

Ty and the gang of �Extreme Makeover: Home Edition� head to Tampa, Florida to rebuild the home of a family whose house was destroyed by a small plane crash, on �Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,� SUNDAY, MARCH 4 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

Tom and Cynthia Tate are well known in their tight knit community of Davis Island. Tom is the co-owner of Tate Brothers� Pizza and is responsible for giving most of the kids in town their first jobs, while Cynthia is extremely involved with the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and the PTA. The Tate Brothers are involved with almost every volunteer or charity event around Davis Island, and it�s been said that many of the island kids have grown up in the Tate house. In that respect, June 12, 2006 was a rare day when the house was not filled with neighborhood kids. Out of the entire Tate family, only Cynthia was at home when a plane crashed into the house. The pilot was killed, along with the family pets, and the co-pilot was badly burned but survived. Cynthia miraculously escaped without any injuries, while the house and everything inside it was destroyed. To make matters worse, because of a clerical error, the home was not insured, so the Tates are unable to pay off the existing mortgage, let alone rebuild their home.

The Tate family has gone above and beyond in helping their community, and now it�s time for Ty and the gang to lend a helping hand in return. This episode of �Extreme Makeover: Home Edition� will feature the restoration of the home of one of Davis Island�s most beloved families, so that once again it can be a gathering place for the entire community.

While Ty and the designers, national homebuilder WCI Communities and hundreds of volunteers and workers are rebuilding their home in a remarkable seven days, the Tate family will go on vacation to Costa Rica on a Disney Adventure.

The design team for this episode of �Extreme Makeover: Home Edition� will feature team leader Ty Pennington and designers Paige Hemmis, Eduardo Xol, Tracy Hutson and Preston Sharp.

David Goldberg is the president of Endemol USA. �Extreme Makeover: Home Edition� is broadcast with Spanish subtitles via secondary closed captioning. This program carries a TV-PG parental guideline.
