Do you need improvements made to your home but are not able to afford them?  Are there projects you are not able to undertake due to financial hardship or health reasons?

Rebuilding Together can help at no cost to you.

Rebuilding Together is a nonprofit organization supported entirely by contributions of time, labor, material and money. We are dedicated to repairing homes of families having a financial hardship, are an older adult or is a person with a disability.

Skilled and unskilled volunteers along with able-bodied members of the recipient’s family and friends complete the repairs at no cost to the family. All able-bodied family members and friends are expected to work along with our volunteers at the home as a condition of acceptance into our program.
