Rebuilding Together SouthWest Illinois is focused on ensuring low income home-owners are safe, warm, and dry. As economic situations continue to worsen, along with rapidly increasing costs of homeownership and healthcare, many low-income, disabled, veterans and elderly families are forced to choose between daily necessities and much needed home modifications or repairs. Rebuilding Together SouthWest Illinois is committed to rehabilitating the houses of low-income, elderly, and handicapped homeowners, so they can live independently in warmth and safety. Rebuilding Together SouthWest Illinois’ service area covers all communities within Madison County, Jersey County, and St Clair County, Illinois.

Those wishing to donate or volunteer for Rebuilding Together SouthWest Illinois may email program@rebuildingtogether-swi.org or call 618-876-4578.
