PROGRAM INFORMATION:

 

Rebuilding Together San Diego is a volunteer program designed to provide free renovation services to elderly, disabled and low-income homeowners and nonprofit community centers in San Diego County.

 

We help homeowners who cannot physically or financially address their home repair needs themselves, and community centers that do not have the financial resources to complete the needed facility repairs.

 

Homeowners and community center representatives are expected to actively participate, as part of the team during the entire program.

 

·        There is no charge for our services. In some cases, community facility who have the available funding, are asked to partner and share in the cost of materials and supplies for the benefit of their center, along with volunteer support.

 

·        The Project Selection Committee determines which community centers will be selected based upon: our mission, the number of applications, the need of the agency & if they are serving the needs of the community, our ability to complete the required repairs, and the participation and involvement of the applicant.

 

·        We are limited in the type of work we can do.  Due to size and complexity of the work needed, we may not be able to do certain projects. Work completed at each site is different.

 

·        Rebuilding Together San Diego is committed to providing equal opportunities for all applicants for our program’s services. All selection decisions are made without regard to unlawful considerations of race, sex, religion, national origin, age, sexual orientation, disability, or any other legally protected status.
