Rebuilding Together Richmond is the Richmond, Virginia affiliate of Rebuilding Together. The Rebuilding Together program exists in hundreds of communities throughout the country. Our program serves the City of Richmond. Our focus is to provide warmth, safety, and independence to the elderly and disabled. We are rebuilding homes, and rebuilding lives. Our program is centered around a one-day “blitz”, held the last Saturday in April, when over 1500 volunteers each year make both major and minor repairs to qualified homes. Since our first project in 1993, the size and scope of our work has grown. We have now improved nearly 700 homes in fifteen communities, including Blackwell, Church Hill, Newtown South, Summerhill, Jefferson-Davis corridor, Maymont, Barton Heights, Montrose/National Heights, Providence Park, Swansboro, Oak Grove, Carver, Bellemeade, Byrd Park, Randolph and Highland Park. This represents an estimated market value of more than $800,000 last year alone in home improvements, home repairs, and community revitalization project in at-risk neighborhoods. Last year, we raised over $200,000, which was used to rehabilitate 45 homes in Highland Park. For more info: http://www.rebuildingtogetherric...
