SIX SMALL TOWNS WILL GET A MUCH-NEEDED REFRESH WITH HELP FROM HGTV AND ITS RENOVATION SUPERSTARS IN 'HOME TOWN KICKSTART PRESENTED BY PEOPLE'

NEW YORK [November 16, 2021] Six small communities - Buffalo, Wyoming; Cornwall, New York; Winslow, Arizona; LaGrange, Kentucky; Thomaston, Georgia; and Minden, Louisiana - need a boost to re-energize their revitalization efforts and HGTV has called on some of its biggest stars to help out in Home Town Kickstart Presented by PEOPLE (wt), a new renovation series slated to premiere in spring 2022. Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent (The Nate and Jeremiah Home Project); Ty Pennington (Rock the Block); Jasmine Roth (Help! I Wrecked My House); and Alison Victoria (Windy City Rehab) are among the network's popular experts who, supported by Home Town stars Ben and Erin Napier, will lead three projects in each town: refresh the home of a local hero, give a small business a beautiful upgrade and reinvigorate a public space to enhance the residents' quality of life and engender community pride.

During the series, Ben and Erin, who know a thing or two about small town revitalization, will offer their insight and encouragement, and PEOPLE magazine, the No.1 brand in the United States celebrating popular culture, will share the unique stories of each location and the standout locals that reside within them.

"We see the positive impact of this small town renaissance every day in Laurel," said Erin. "Ben and I can't wait to share all we've learned with our fellow HGTV experts so they can help these communities achieve their goals."

Selected from the thousands of submissions HGTV originally received for the hit series Home Town Takeover, the six towns in Home Town Kickstart Presented by PEOPLE, will benefit from the expertise of the popular network stars and, through added visibility in PEOPLE, may secure more support as they work to rejuvenate their towns.

"PEOPLE's audience aligns perfectly with HGTV's viewers," said Dan Wakeford, editor in chief, PEOPLE. "We are thrilled to highlight stories about everyday heroes working towards positive change in their communities."

Home Town Kickstart Presented By PEOPLE (wt) is produced by RTR Media.
