In September 2023, Rebuilding Together Kansas City held its annual volunteer and repair blitz, Rebuilding Day. This is a flagship program of Rebuilding Together, whereby hundreds of volunteers converge on homes across the community to complete critical repairs and safety modifications.

On this day, 16 homes were improved thanks to the work of 220 volunteers that served with us.
