Rebuilding Together
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rebuilding Together is a non-profit organization dedicated to revitalizing and rebuilding communities, buildings, and houses for low-income homeowners and neighborhoods through the use of volunteer labor.
Rebuilding Together was originally formed in 1988 as "Christmas in April", but changed their name to Rebuilding Together when the organization realized the increased needs for low-income homeowners needing greater diversified year-round services.

Rebuilding Together has many unusual ways to raise funds. Currently they have a campaign for 1-800-THE-INFO that continues through the end of this May 2008. Rebuilding Together will receive $1 for every complete call up to $1 million. This means that the person making the call must ask for a business listing and receive a telephone number for that business. The importance of this campaign cannot be overstated. Rebuilding Together has an opportunity to reach up to $ 1 million in unrestricted funding. Anyone can get involved in Rebuilding Together. Make a 1-800-THE-INFO call, log on to the RT website and find a location near you, volunteer to help rebuild or donate money or in-kind supplies.
