Free Repairs for Homeowners in Need

Rebuilding Together is currently looking for homeowners in need of repair services 
in Falcon Heights and in St. Paul's Como, Hamline-Midway or Frogtown neighborhoods.

The mission of Rebuilding Together Twin Cities is to bring volunteers and communities together to improve the homes and lives of low-income homeowners. They provide no-cost home repairs for homeowners in need, particularly older adults, individuals living with disabilities and families with children.  This service ensures that these homeowners live independently in homes that are safe, warm and dry.
                                                
-Qualified applicants must own or be current with mortgage payments; be up-to-date with tax payments; reside in the home for which they are applying; and have homeowners insurance.

And, at least one resident in the home must be a senior, an individual living with a disability, a child under the age of 18, or an active or retired member of the armed services.
