Katherine is a single mom of two sons, including one who is severely autistic. Her son has damaged walls, windows, and doors throughout their Kansas City mobile home. This damage was not only unsightly, but a very real danger to the boy.

Thanks to funding from the City of Kansas City, Rebuilding Together was able to help! Our crews installed a plexiglass product over the walls in the son’s room that he can’t kick through. In addition, we installed a new door, installed fire detectors, replaced a broken window, and provided fire extinguishers – all of which will help keep the family safe.

We are grateful for the support of funders like the City of Kansas City, Missouri. Would you consider joining in our work? Reach out today to find out how you can become a [Re]builder!

Inspired by his experiences with a Rebuilding Together affiliate in Texas, Liberty leader Clay McQuerry wanted to have similar experiences in his own local community. In 2001, Clay started the Clay County affiliate of Rebuilding Together.

Now, 25 years later, Rebuilding Together Kansas City is a vibrant, growing, impactful organization serving neighbors in need throughout Kansas City’s Northland and beyond. Over 1,000 critical repairs are completed each year by our volunteers, staff, and partners, with hundreds of families receiving services.

We have much to celebrate in 2026! Stay tuned for how you can get involved with Rebuilding Together Kansas City this year – whether serving on site, supporting the mission, or helping to lay the foundation for our next 25 years.

At Rebuilding Together Kansas City, we value the sacrifices and service of our veterans! That’s why we offer Veterans at Home, a program specifically designed to serve those who have served us by helping them stay in their homes as long as possible.

In partnership with Clay and Platte Counties, Rebuilding Together offers no cost home repairs and safety modifications to veterans in our area. From wheelchair ramps to handrails, we are committed to serving as many veterans as possible.

If you know of a veteran in need of assistance, they can apply for services at www.rebuildingtogetherkc.org.

When we look back over the last few years of Rebuilding Together Kansas City, we see more: more families helped, more volunteers recruited, more sponsors and partners connecting with us, more investment in our work. We are pleased to offer a recap of all of that – and more – with our 2024 Annual Report.

Highlights of the report include the stories of two of our clients, a snapshot of our financial position, gratitude to our 2024 Gala and Rebuilding Day sponsors, and highlights of our impact.
