National Rebuilding Day is April 30!
|
This week we celebrate our 27th annual Rebuilding Day in San Francisco! Repairing 7 homes, building 3 outdoor classrooms at elementary schools, and renovating 7 community facilities with more than 500 volunteers.
For the last several Saturdays, teams have been hard at work prepping projects for the big day. With over 50 volunteers across 10 project sites, much needed work was done to ensure we have a successful Rebuilding Day. From cutting wood, to removing debris, to landscaping and dirt moving, volunteers rolled up their sleeves, donned work gloves, and had huge smiles on their faces.

Mrs Ross's Home
 Mrs. Ross is a 74 year old mother and grandmother; and longtime resident of Visitation Valley. She first heard of Rebuilding Together SF through a friend of a friend.
Last year a sewer pipe ruptured in Mrs. Ross' home; the first floor bedroom and bathroom were flooded. Her insurance covered the costs of remediation, but not repair. She has been living with an unfini
she
d room for the last year, not to mention the continuing smell of a faulty sewer line.
Rebuilding Together San Francisco to the rescue!
With help from the City's
E
mergency Repairs Program
, we fixed the sewer line. Over the last two weekends, volunteers installed sheet rock, insulated the bedroom, and prepped the bathroom for plumbing and electrical improvements. This weekend a team from Walker-Warner Architects and GFDS Engineers will finish the job by painting the bedroom, weeding, and restoring the backyard.
Stay tuned for "after" photos.
