Disaster Recovery & Reconstruction

In the aftermath of a disaster it is often the most vulnerable among us who are left in damaged, wet, cold, and unsafe housing.  It is our mission to preserve affordable housing by bringing volunteers and communities together to rehabilitate the homes of these often low-income homeowners.  In the wake of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and in the spirit of this mission, Rebuilding Together launched the Disaster Recovery & Reconstruction Initiative and a commitment to Rebuild 1000 homes across the Gulf Coast.

Rebuild 1000 is executed in partnership with our Gulf Coast Affiliates, Our Sponsors, and thousands of Volunteers just like you.

We have made Progress since the storms in 2005, but the need in the Gulf region remains critical. Many continue to live in cramped and unsafe FEMA trailers parked in the front yards of their flood and wind damaged homes. We can help rebuild these homes and revitalize these communities, but we need you.
