What we do: In partnership with the community, we provide free home repairs to qualified Saratoga County homeowners who are low-income, elderly, veterans or disabled and non-profit facilities serving the community. There is never a cost to the homeowner or the non-profit organization.

Who we help: Saratoga County has a population of approximately 210,000 people.  Of that number, 6% are below the poverty line or roughly 12,600. More and more families are placed in the position of choosing between vital necessities over essential home repairs and modifications.  We can and do make a difference in the lives of many families.

Rebuilding Together believes the disabled and elderly should be allowed to remain in their own homes whenever possible. We believe that all people deserve to live in homes that are safe and warm. We believe that our nation's veterans who return with disabilities deserve a helping hand so they may return to their own homes in basic comfort.  We also believe that communities want to be a part of helping their neighbors in need.
