Rebuilding Together

August is Back-to-School Month, a time for new routines, sharpened pencils and fresh starts. But for families living in homes that are unsafe or in disrepair, it can also bring added stress. 📚 A broken furnace, exposed wires or persistent mold doesn’t just make a home uncomfortable; it can disrupt sleep, concentration and a child’s ability to learn. 💡What do you believe every student needs outside the classroom to succeed inside it? Let us know in the comments below! #BacktoSchoolMonth #SafeAtHome #WeAreRebuilders

Rebuilding Together recently partnered with IDEAL Electrical to support a vital community hub in Chicago: CC’s Little Village Boys & Girls Club—the oldest in the city and a cornerstone for youth in South Lawndale. Thanks to IDEAL Electrical’s generous financial support and donation of materials—and the time and talent of their employees and professional electricians who volunteered—Rebuilding Together Metro Chicago provided essential upgrades that will help this space, which serves under-resourced communities, continue to thrive. From connecting wires to connecting people, IDEAL Electrical’s products are helping power change where it’s needed most. We’re proud to partner with #IDEALElectrical to make a lasting impact. #WeAreRebuilders Please note that all electrical work is being completed by licensed professionals.

“I don’t know where I would go if I had to leave my home.” 💚🏡 Pat Haskins needed urgent home repairs and a wheelchair ramp for her partner. But like so many others, she couldn’t afford the fixes herself. Rebuilding Together Montgomery County stepped in, but thousands of neighbors are still waiting. Congress is currently considering the Whole-Home Repairs Act of 2025, which would help communities across the country make essential repairs and preserve the homes they already have. 💡 Want to learn more?

Parks aren’t just green spaces; they’re gathering places. They’re where stories start, friendships form and communities grow stronger. This #NationalParkandRecreationMonth, we’re celebrating the transformation of a playground in McIntosh, Alabama, led by Rebuilding Together of South Alabama (RTSOAL), partners and volunteers. Together, they transformed an underused park into an inviting space where children can explore, families can gather and memories are created.
