REBUILDING TOGETHER




National Rebuilding Day

Mark your calendars for the last Saturday in April!
Saturday, April 25, 2026

Rebuilding Together is a nationwide home repair and rehabilitation initiative dedicated to keeping low-income homeowners living in safety, warmth, and independence through volunteer services. On the last Saturday in April, teams from all over the country will spend the day making repairs and improvements to their assigned project homes.

SEA-MW has partnered with local chapters in Maryland, Virginia, and DC since 2011, and many of our repeat volunteers have been with us since day one! The SEA-MW team has consistently been at least 20 to 30 people on rebuilding day, in additional to 10 job captains who prepare and organize projects. In the past, SEA-MW has completed concrete repairs, plumbing repairs, bathroom repairs, replacing doors and windows, exterior and interior painting, landscaping, flooring repairs, fence construction, screened-in porch repairs, etc. Rebuilding Together knows our team can get a lot of great projects done in challenging environments—they are so excited each year to see what we do for our homeowners!

No experience necessary—just a willingness to make an impact on someone's life.  


2025 Update

On April 26, 2025, 28 members of SEA gathered to participate in the annual DC Rebuilding Together to take on a host of home improvement activates at a residence in Northeast DC. Volunteers helped install new shower/tub liner; performed backyard landscaping; installed a new exterior dryer exhaust and dryer; installed a new exterior safety door and window; installed new baseboards and trim; replaced bathroom fixtures; and installed new CO2 monitors, fire alarms, and fire extinguishers. In between all of that, we had time for a cookout on the grill for lunch! After a hard day’s work, the residents were thrilled with the improvements. The volunteers’ dedication spoke volumes of the character of the SEA-MW chapter and highlighted the strength of the “can-do” spirit so many of our SEA chapter members bring every day.

Thanks to all who participated! We look forward to seeing you next year.
