On an upcoming episode of ABC's EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION, the designers help to create a new student lounge at a local school in order to help the Keefer family and some well-deserving students.

As the iconic "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" returns for the ninth season, deserving families in need of a newly rebuilt and decorated home are once again treated to the door knock that changes lives. Throughout the series, children have been an integral part of so many of the episodes, and this season children are the focus. Whether it's bringing to light the challenges of dwarfism faced by youngsters, the bond between a father and his paralyzed son, or the heroic eight-year-old who saved her younger sister from an oncoming truck -- but incurred life-threatening injuries of her own -- this season celebrates the power of children to transform their own lives and those of their communities.

And "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" will continue to unite the families selected with their favorite entertainers, athletes, politicians and role models, this season including First Lady Michelle Obama, Glenn Close, Rihanna and Meredith Vieira, among others.

EXTREME MAKEOVER HOME EDITION airs Fridays from 8:00 - 10:00 pm on the ABC network.
