Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Homeowners whoa re elderly, low-income, or disabled lack funds and abilities to repair homes themselves. This can lead to unsafe environments, increased falls, mold presence, and other health issues. By performing critical repairs, we can keep homes safe and make sure the homeowner has the option to stay in their home. A lack of affordable housing units is prevalent in our service area. Rebuild Upstate protects an existing home and preserves an affordable housing option for the community.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Rebuild Upstate exists to make homes safer, healthier, and more livable. Our repairs contribute to health outcomes such as reducing falls, removing mold, and making sure each homeowner has the option to continue to live in their home in the future. Rebuild Upstate also serves to preserve existing affordable housing units by empowering homeowners to stay in the most affordable housing they have - the one they already own.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Rebuild Upstate performs critical repairs that increase accessibility, decrease harmful presence, and preserves existing structure. Rebuild Upstate uses volunteers to perform repairs, which ensures more funds can be spent directly on materials for each homeowner. Rebuild Upstate serves each homeowner holistically. By performing an average of 3 projects per home, Rebuild Upstate ensures the home is as safe as it can be and addresses root causes of disrepair. In addition, Rebuild Upstate provides each homeowner with referrals to other community agencies.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Rebuild Upstate is a licensed residential contractor in South Carolina. Each staff member is trained in volunteer management and safety protocols. Core staff who serve directly with homeowners receive training on mental health first-aid. Rebuild Upstate has extensive relationships with municipal and community agencies in the communities where we serve.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
In 2019, Rebuild Upstate served 163 homeowners and completed 478 unique projects. Rebuild Upstate has established a robust volunteer program to meet our demand for repairs. In 2019, over 1,200 individuals volunteered.
Rebuild Upstate has created safer, healthier, and more livable homes. Mrs. S, a homeowner, shared her testimony.
Mrs. S prayed for a way to fix her leaking roof. The moisture from the leak was causing mold growth in her home which was causing health problems and even hospitalization, for herself and the 7 grandchildren that live with her.
As a result of having her roof repaired by Rebuild Upstate volunteers, Mrs. S has not been to the ER since. Now, her family can focus on spending time with one another and doing what they love: like cooking and focusing on education.
