Rebuilding Together Lincoln County - Boothbay Harbor, ME

Location: Boothbay Harbor, ME.

Rebuilding Together-Lincoln County (RT-LC) was formed by a group of local citizens in the Boothbay Region in 2002. It is a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization affiliated with the National Rebuilding Together organization headquartered in Washington, D.C. [www.rebuildingtogether.org]

There are over 225 affiliates serving 1880 communities nationwide, with over 275,000 volunteers working together to keep low-income homeowners safe, warm, and living independently, especially the elderly and disabled.

Each year Rebuilding Together-Lincoln County participates along with the other affiliates across the nation in a National Rebuilding Together Day, which for our affiliate occurs on a Saturday in May each year. This is the day that volunteers—skilled, semi-skilled, and those with no specific skills—come together that morning to receive assignments to work on a designated home which has been selected to receive RT services.

RT-LC also performs urgent repairs needed to keep our qualified neighbors warm during the cold winter months with repairs and updates such as adding insulation, replacing storm doors, caulking windows, wrapping pipes and other tasks to keep out the cold air.

The incredible local Rebuilding Together volunteer team has thus far performed home repairs projects for over 140 individual homeowners in Lincoln County and has helped improve the lives of so many neighbors who need a helping hand.

Rebuilding Together Lincoln County is a local affiliate of Rebuilding Together, a national organization that includes 166 affiliates serving 500 communities nationwide. Rebuilding Together’s national headquarters was launched in 1988 with a commitment to spread the program to every state.
