Mission
To build community resilience in the portland region by ensuring access to affordable reclaimed home improvement materials, reuse education, and repair skills so people can be self-sufficient and reduce waste.
Programs
3 programs
Repair skills education: through our repair skills classes and home repair for all offerings, we teach our community how to perform safe, affordable, sustainable home repairs and improvements, and how to maintain their homes. For many homeowners, their house is their most significant asset, but they might not know how to preserve and maintain that asset as a means to build generational wealth. We offer more than 150 classes per year to teach people how to keep their homes safe, sustainable, functional, and in good repair. Students learn skills in basic carpentry, plumbing repair, electrical repair and installation, floor refinishing, drywall repair, and more. Through this work, we build comfort and confidence in repair to save our community money, build economic resilience, keep stuff out of landfills, and empower people to stay in their own homes. The average cost of a three-hour class is $70, and we offer both a racial justice scholarship for black, latinx, and indigenous participants, and a need-based scholarship for anyone earning less than $35,000 per year.
Volunteer services: our volunteer program engages over 530 people from diverse backgrounds each year. Together, they provide more than 3200 hours of valued community service, tailored to each volunteer's skills and interests. Volunteers are also at the heart of our annual day of service, performing essential home repairs for homeowners living with low incomes and at risk of displacement from our community.
