Rebuilding Together always has more home owners that need
help than we can work with each year. That's why, in
addition to the generous sponsors listed above, we need
your help to sponsor a house.
What is a sponsor?
A sponsor is a business or an organization which provides
a team of volunteers and usually makes a donation to
Rebuilding Together to help pay for the cost of repairing a
home.
Team sizes and donations vary widely depending upon the
ability of the sponsor. Some teams are better at
pulling together volunteers. Others are better at
providing funding. In each case, Rebuilding Together
matches sponsors with an appropriate home which matches
their ability to participate.
Typically a sponsor will provide between 7 and 40
volunteers and make a donation to Rebuilding Together
Litchfield County of between $1,500 and $5,000 depending on
the scope of the project they will undertake.
Rebuilding Together will provide a house captain if needed
who will assist the team with every step of the project.
Rebuilding Together will also provide skilled carpenters,
electricians, plumbers, etc. as needed.
Every business or organization, no matter what the size or
scope of participation is welcome. Working on a house with
Rebuilding Together is a wonderful opportunity to network, earn
media attention, build teams, improve neighborhoods and give
back to the community. |
