Happy Fundraising Friday! It’s our very first #fundraisingfriday of the holiday season and we’re already off to a great start! We’re on a mission to raise $120,000 by 12/31 for our neighbors like Obdulia, a proud San Jose resident, who moved here over 35 years ago to work towards achieving the American Dream and to attend San Jose State University. While she worked hard to build her career, family, home, and community from the ground up as a mother, Guapa Housing Project volunteer, and community advocate, she found herself in need of help. Her bathroom no longer had running water, her tub became a hazard as she developed mobility issues, and the exterior of her once beautiful home became patched between one color and the original color peeking through. ?Your support helped us make Obdulia’s home safer and we thank you for investing in our work! We’re already on our way to $120,000, and we know we’ll get there with your support! You can help us continue offering our free home repair services for our neighbors who depend on it most.

关于我们
Rebuilding Together Silicon Valley is a non-profit organization that performs critical home repairs and safety modifications for low-income homeowners, particularly seniors and individuals with disabilities, at no cost to them. Established in 1991, we are proud today to serve Santa Clara County. We engage volunteers to help us transform the lives of homeowners-in-need in their communities. During our largest community event, Rebuilding Day, thousands of volunteers gather to repair and revitalize 30-40 homes throughout Santa Clara County with the generous support and partnership of our sponsors. Our remaining programs allow us to be out in the community 5 days a week making critical repairs to peoples' homes. These services range from small safety modifications to making larger repairs that impact homeowners' health and safety. We also serve other non-profit organizations so that they can dedicate their resources to the community rather than to facility repair. Our office is open Monday-Friday 9am-5pm (408) 578-9519 [email protected] Connect with us! @RTSiliconValley on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter

WARM NC does this same kind of work in Wilmington and surrounding counties in the Cape Fear Region. Thank you Bethany Morrison and Rebuilding Together for the great work you do in the Charlotte area and around the state and nation through the work of various affiliates. What wise words: "we cannot build ourselves out of this housing crisis." Maintaining the existing affordable housing stock is the most cost- effective way to address the issue. Both of these great organizations would love to have you Volunteer or support our cause.
Yesterday, I had the privilege of attending an insightful event presented by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Historic Landmarks Commission, Mecklenburg County, and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte with Donovan Rypkema, who spoke powerfully about the critical role preservation plays in affordable housing strategies. His words struck a deep chord: "We are systematically tearing down what is affordable and building what is not." Between 1987 and 2021, Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) enabled the creation of 3,550,000 affordable housing units, a crucial contribution to our nation's housing stock. Yet, during this same period, 11,479,000 housing units built before 1970 were lost forever. This is a stark reminder that we cannot simply “build our way out” of the affordable housing crisis; we must preserve and invest in the homes that already exist. At Rebuilding Together of Greater Charlotte, we focus on repairing homes—many of which were built before 1970—to ensure they remain safe, healthy, and affordable for current residents. Every home we repair is one more preserved asset in our community’s affordable housing stock, preventing displacement and helping families stay in the communities they call home. Our work is a small but significant step toward preserving the affordable housing we cannot afford to lose. #AffordableHousing #Preservation #HousingCrisis #RebuildingTogether #CommunityImpact #WeAreRebuilders

Last Saturday I had the honor of leading the Applied Materials Veterans Employee Resource Group on our 4th annual Veterans Helping Veterans community service project. 32 of us came together to help a local veteran in our community in need. We painted the exterior of the house, repaired screens, planted shrubs, and as evidenced by all the smiles had a great time! Thanks to Rebuilding Together Silicon Valley for facilitating the event!

The affordable housing crisis extends beyond cost—it's about the deteriorating quality of existing homes, which impacts the stability and safety of countless families. With limited resources for essential repairs, many homeowners face conditions that pose serious health and safety risks. Rebuilding Together is working to preserve our country’s affordable housing stock through critical repairs. Read more from NPR about this work and how the Whole Home Repairs Act could make a difference: https://lnkd.in/eFhfk6qH #WeAreRebuilders #NPR #AffordableHousing #WholeHomeRepairsAct
