17th Annual National Rebuilding Day
Saturday, April 28, 2012
Rebuilding Together Dayton is the only organization in the Miami Valley dedicated to rehabbing owner-occupied homes for low-income homeowners at no cost. Through in-kind labor and donated materials, Rebuilding Together Dayton is able to expand every dollar raised into $4. On April 28, 2012, over 1,100 Rebuilding Together Dayton volunteers will work on up to 25 homes across the City of Dayton, providing $300,000 worth of improvements and modifications.
Rebuilding Together Dayton selects projects from nominations by neighborhood groups, churches, neighborhood development corporations, city housing inspectors, priority boards and individuals.
Applicants must own their own homes in the City of Dayton and have a combined household income of less than 80% of the area median income. Preference is given to homeowners who are elderly and/or disabled and have lived in their homes for a minimum of 10 years.
Last Year's Impact
Over 1,200 area volunteers donated their time to help their neighbors on Saturday, April 30, 2011, National Rebuilding Day, to repair 22 homes and three community centers all across the City of Dayton. Roofs were replaced, porches rebuilt, sidewalks replaced, siding installed, windows replaced, electricity restored, plumbing repaired, houses painted, wheelchair ramps built, and friendships were made. The total value of the repairs exceeded $300,000.
