The heart of Rebuilding Together’s programming is its annual Rebuilding Day, a one-day home repair blitz day held twice a year on Saturdays. In 2023, over 850 volunteers contributed nearly 6900 hours to help to repair over 96 homes. When feasible, they cluster the homes for maximum impact on neighborhoods. Typical home repairs may include: painting, drywall repair or replacement, window and door replacement, replacing deteriorating porches, adding grab bars or other home modifications, updating electrical needs, and repairing outdated plumbing. The focus of the organization's work is to improve the homeowners' comfort and safety and to help ensure their independence.
