Safeway

Safeway and Rebuilding Together partnered to combine Safeway’s long history of providing outreach to people with disabilities and Rebuilding Together’s expertise in home modifications for people with disabilities. Each April, through their Disability Awareness Month, The Safeway Foundation raises awareness of the needs of persons living with disabilities and raises money to support sponsored organizations, such as Rebuilding Together, through a campaign in their stores. 

 Nearly 400 Safeway employee volunteers have spent over 3,000 hours rehabilitating 10 homes and nonprofit centers across the country, in association with Rebuilding Together. Each project was designed to highlight Safeway’s commitment to supporting people with disabilities and its awareness campaign, as well as the work of Rebuilding Together to impact the lives of people with disabilities.
