MillionsWhen millions who have achieved home ownership live in unsafe, unhealthy and often unlivable conditions, they cease to be thriving members of the community placing the value and vitality of the community at large at risk. Rebuilding Together is uniquely positioned to mobilize services and resources to address the needs of low-income

homeowners and reverse the cycle of community destabilization.

Rebuilding Together is the only national nonprofit organization fully dedicated to rebuilding

the housing stock in low-income communities. Through our nationwide network of more than

200 affiliates, we develop public/private partnerships with corporations and municipalities that

create sustainable homeownership options for individuals and families. We transform lives and

stabilize neighborhoods.

A third of our nation’s assets are housing stock.Half of homeowners’ net worth is the equity in their homes.

Together, we can revitalize communities.
