…available for low-income
homeowners
It’s
Rebuilding Together * Portland time!
We will be celebrating our 19th year on April 25,
2009. Our goal is to repair and rehabilitate over 50 homes and
non-profit community facilities.
Rebuilding Together *
Portland is a
non-profit organization supported entirely by contributions of
time, labor, materials, and money. We are dedicated to
repairing the homes of those who, due to financial hardship,
age, and/or disability cannot do the work themselves. Skilled
and unskilled volunteers along with able-bodied members of the
recipients’ family and friends complete repairs
at no cost to the homeowner.
To be eligible for
consideration for 2009 the applicant must:
-
be the owner and occupant of
the property
-
be low income; elderly
and/or disabled; families with children; veterans
-
be unable both financially
and physically to complete repairs themselves
-
live in a property located
in the City of Portland
Homeowner safety and security
are the first priorities of Rebuilding Together. Our skilled and
unskilled volunteers do all types of work including painting,
plumbing, electrical, carpentry, roofing, weatherization, yard
cleaning, debris removal, and much more! We do need the
homeowners to understand that time and weather may prevent these
volunteers from accomplishing everything that the applicant
would like done to their home on our workday, Saturday, April
25, 2009.
