A Raleigh life coaching company is making a community impact that's causing a whole lot of kids to smile.

The Legacy Center in Raleigh offers life coaching to participants in three stages. First is a series of coaching sessions, both beginning and advanced. Next, comes a leadership activity, where participants set out to do a challenging task in record time.

At the Durham Rescue Mission, participants with the center set out to remodel residents' rooms, and set up a library for kids. Volunteers finished the task on Monday afternoon, and they were met with smiling faces from both mothers and children.

"It just brings me to tears how somebody would just come and just re-do these rooms. it's a beautiful thing," said Adrian Stuckey.

She and her two sons are staying at the mission. She says she's most impressed with the new curtains in her room.

"It's beautiful," she said.

Tanikka Dennison came from Pennsylvania to volunteer for the project. She was in tears when she saw the response from the mission's residents.

"It's just amazing that we've been able, as a community to come together and pull off the impossible," she said.

The hit of the day was the mural that was painted in the children's library. Kids saw their own faces on the walls with the help of a West Virginia artist and volunteer.

"I wanted them to feel empowered, that their imaginations could create their environment," said artist Deborah Dorland.

The Legacy Center has participated on at least three projects at the Rescue Mission. Organizers say participants choose what activity they work on. They say they get requests for help from all over the United States.
