Have You Heard about our Critical Repair Program?

Last year, we launched our Critical Repair Program, which is designed to help low-income homeowners repair or replace vital systems associated with their home, such as heating and air conditioning, electrical, plumbing, windows, siding, and/or roof systems.  These contractor-based services enable homeowners in need to be better prepared to deal with future home maintenance issues.

We have already assisted 14 homeowners through this program.  One of the homeowners we helped was Donna who said in her thank you note, “Since getting a new roof, a great burden has been lifted from my life.”

This program is made possible by the generous support of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines and Minnesota Housing Finance Agency.

THANK YOU for Giving Deb her Independence!

Last month, we asked for your help and you answered our call! Deb, 57, is a career nurse suffering from a neurological disease that limits the use of her legs, and she is currently confined to a wheelchair. We asked you to help us by donating or volunteering so we could build a ramp for Deb, making it possible for her leave her home. With the support of many generous donors and hard work of volunteers, we were able to raise the funding needed to design and install a ramp for Deb through BarnRaisings! On January 19th & 20th, our volunteers braved the cold to install the ramp for Deb, restoring her independence. THANK YOU!

We would like to give a special thanks to Jon Rol, a general contractor, who volunteered to help install Deb’s ramp. Jon brought his tools and expertise, both of which we appreciate!

Happy Holidays!

With the holiday season in full swing, the Rebuilding Together Twin Cities Family would like to take this opportunity to thank ALL of YOU for your support and hard work to help homeowners in need this year.  We were able to help more homeowners than ever live independently in safe, healthy and warm homes – thanks to the donations and hard work of people like you.  We wish you and your family a safe, healthy and happy holiday season!
