about Rebuilding Together

Rebuilding Together * Howard County is a volunteer organization that works in partnership with the community to address the needs of low-income homeowners, primarily the elderly, disabled, and families with children. RTHC is committed to helping Howard County residents who have worked hard to own their own homes but whose failing health or fixed income does not allow them to cover the extraordinary costs of home repair.

RTHC performs home repairs and home modifications such as the installation of wheelchair ramps and grab bars to improve safety and accessibility. Where necessary, we provide referral to social service providers to address other issues the homeowner is experiencing. All services are provided free of charge to eligible homeowners.

our impact

"I can't even begin to tell you how amazing my house looks. Not only was the sunroom done, but having the house painted and the yard look so beautiful makes it hard to believe this is the same house that stood on this property last Friday...This has been an incredible experience. Not only was I the recipient of all this improvement to the house, but I have met some of the most generous people here in Howard County."

- Ms. Roberta Shipp, Howard County homeowner
