Don’t listen to Barbie. Math isn’t hard. In fact, National Rebuilding Day math is FUN! Let me show you…
In San Francisco:
1400 RD Volunteers + 35 sponsoring organizations / 52 building projects = $1,000,000 worth of repairs
Let’s try another one for the entire Bay Area:
8550 RD volunteers x 10 hours of time each = 180 homes, 51 Facilities, 6 schools repaired and renovated in one day
Multiply the above by 200 Rebuilding Together Affiliates across the United States and you get tens of thousands of volunteers donating their time and skills to make a huge impact in their own communities.
Give yourself some extra credit this week. Post your own Rebuilding Day math on your Facebook page, and visit our blog and Facebook to tell us how your volunteer hours changed lives on April 30.
