Telling the Rebuilding Together Houston Story

On Site

Every crew receives a sign to place in the front yard of the home with the crew's name displayed along with Rebuilding Together Houston contact information.  This is a useful tool for directing interested neighbors who would like to know more about how to apply for Rebuilding Together Houston services. Please leave the sign when you are done with your project. Someone from RTH will remove it during final inspections.

We need your help telling our story on social media.  The more people that see the fun they can have volunteering for Rebuilding Together Houston, the more people will want to  volunteer to help our neighbors in need!
Don't forget! Appoint a volunteer to be the Social Media coordinator; she/he will be in charge of sharing the Rebuilding Together Houston social media information with volunteers and sharing photos with relevant RTH staff.
