APPLETON, WI (WTAQ) – It’s a pretty tall order to accomplish; rehabilitating 15 homes in one day but it’s happening on Saturday.
Non-profit Rebuilding Together Fox Valley is partnering with Fox Valley Technical College for their 16th annual National Rebuilding Day.
Executive director Shannon Wiegman says it takes a lot of man power to complete the home improvements.
“In some cases we have 65 volunteers that are going to be at one location on Saturday that are going to be helping with everything from minor, little things in the yard to some massive projects with redoing bathrooms.”
Each project has a sponsor who provides the volunteer help. Around 500 volunteers total will be working on the projects.
“It’s really a neat day because it’s bringing so many different people together for a good cause for the people in our community that really need our help,” says Wiegman.
Although they already have hundreds of volunteers for Saturday’s projects, they are always looking for more.

Rebuilding Together Fox Valley’s mission is to improve the homes and lives of low-income individuals in our communities.
