Rebuilding Together St Louis

The rebuilding day program leverages the power of volunteers to provide free home repairs to low-income homeowners who are older adults, veterans and/or individuals with disabilities. Rebuilding days are typically held twice each year, with additional repair work provided year-round by rebuilding together staff, volunteers and contractors. In total in fy25, 98 homeowners were assisted through our programs. Examples of common repairs include installation of grab bars and handrails for safety; door and window repairs; ramp installation; fence, porch and deck repairs or replacement; flooring updates; yardwork; smoke detectors; improved lighting; and plumbing repairs.

Other services provided throughout the year by rebuilding together include our staff construction managers and our weekly safe at home volunteer team that works together to provide repairs to improve safety and accessibility, and also helps with preparations and follow-up work for rebuilding day.
