Our Mission
Rebuilding Together Metro Denver is a non-profit
organization that works in partnership with the community to
rehabilitate the houses of low-income homeowners, particularly
the elderly and disabled, so that they may continue to live
in warmth, safety and independence. What
is Rebuilding Together?
Rebuilding Together Metro Denver
unites volunteers to repair and rehabilitate the homes of
low-income elderly and people with disabilities in the Denver
metropolitan area. Rebuilding Together provides assistance
to people who own their own home but who, because of physical
limitations or income, are not able to cover the costs of
home repairs. Volunteers come from all walks of life, including
civic organizations, small businesses, corporations, churches
and other nonprofit organizations. In 2006, more than 267,000
people volunteered in 850 cities across the nation. Over 8,900
homes and nonprofit facilities were repaired at a value of
$98 million.
Our Programs
Rebuilding Days
Twice a year, in April and October, teams
of volunteers perform free home repairs and modifications

electricity. Homeowners must be over age 65 to qualify for
emergency services.
