On what day is National Rebuilding Day celebrated? April 28
What is National Rebuilding Day? This day pulls local communities together by helping repair the homes of those in need. 85% of homes in the United States were built before 1980 and are in need of frequent maintenance. The problem is, most homeowners below the poverty line cannot afford to make home repairs. Though started in Chicago, National Rebuilding Day is for any community looking to be good neighbors and willing to help with any repairs!
Who founded this day? This day was created by Rebuilding Together: Metro Chicago
