The weather may have tried to keep us at bay, but there was no stopping the hundreds of volunteers that turned out for Rebuilding Day 2024 on Saturday, September 21! With the help of over 250 volunteers, as well as our site sponsors, Rebuilding Together Kansas City was able to complete 22 home projects! These projects ranged from clearing landscaping and brush to installing ramps and handrails.
“I love Rebuilding Day because it is a picture of the community coming together,” said Executive Director Scott Hickox. “It’s a picture of people who care for their community, who care for their neighbors, and want to make a tangible difference.”
Through our work, neighbors like Judy are able to receive critical repairs on their homes that they could not otherwise afford. Judy’s home was able to receive new siding, a new deck, and more.
“You feel the love that people have for you,” she said. “[That love] just surrounds you.”
