SJREI Association members just completed a volunteer project this past Saturday, rehabbing a local home here in San Jose – mainly working on the exterior of the property. We painted the house, cleaned, and did some landscaping as well as removing a ton of junk from the property. We provided furniture for the patio of the house for the homeowner and she was thrilled. This was sponsored by the SJREI and it’s affiliates. A barbeque following the project which was fun, and it felt good to provide this service to a little old lady in our community.
We did this rehab in concert with Rebuilding Together who help people to rehab their homes, as opposed to Habitat for Humanity who build new homes. Rebuilding Together focus on older, disabled residents who really need the help. Thank you to all of the volunteers and to our sponsors – Richard Smith & Associates, and Howard Bloom from Intero Real Estate. Thank you to all who participated for your hard work and for taking the time to help out our local community members.
