SDCC is partnering with Rebuilding Together to solicit eligible homeowners for Rebuilding Together’s FREE Minor Home Repair Program in 2014.
In 2012, our partnership led to significant repairs for five homeowners on the 5700 – 5900 blocks of Pershing. Mark Gorman, a property owner (and then a resident) on Pershing, was instrumental in soliciting his neighbors and helping to coordinate follow up activities with Rebuilding Together. 2012 repairs included drywall, painting, handrails, flooring, plumbing, roofing, and landscaping. Rebuilding Together is a national organization, and their priority is to serve low to moderate income seniors and persons with disabilities – to help them stay safely and comfortable in their homes. Rebuilding Together also partners with local and national corporations for donated materials and volunteer labor for their annual Spring Build.
The flier that is being distributed with this issue of the Times contains more information about income eligibility for the program.
If you, or someone you know, is in need of some basic home repairs – and if you believe you qualify, please contact the SDCC office at 862- 5122. Application forms are available online at www. skinker.debaliviere. com and at the SDCC office. Your confidential financial information will be available only to the staff of Rebuilding Together, which will hold a workshop at the SDCC office at 6:30 PM, Tuesday, November 12 to answer questions about the program and assist applicants with their paperwork. Your RSVP is required to participate in the workshop.
