About Us

Mission

To bring volunteers and communities together to improve the homes and lives of low-income homeowners.

Who is eligible for Rebuilding Together Tulsa?

Low-income homeowners, who are over 60 or living with a disability are eligible for repairs through Rebuilding Together Tulsa.  Homeowners must live in Tulsa City Limits.

Why is there a need for RebuildingTogether Tulsa?

Many of our Tulsa neighbors have worked hard all their lives and have been physically and financially able to repair their own homes for most of that time. Now, as they age, they find themselves unable to do the repair work themselves, and their homes have become unsafe or unsuitable for the needs of a person who is aging or living with a disability. 

What repairs are done?

Repairs focus on safety, security and weatherproofing, as well as improving communities and neighborhoods.   Repairs can include almost anything from painting to roof replacement.  Structural repairs are not addressed at this time.

Who performs the repairs?

Homes are repaired by volunteer teams from local corporations, businesses, community organizations, churches, synagogues, schools, etc.   Skilled trades professionals assist by completing electrical, plumbing, carpentry or roofing repairs needed.

How are the homes selected?

Neighborhood associations, religious, community, and social service organizations refer homes to our program. The media is also instrumental in letting the community know about or services. The Home Selection committee personally visits each home that meets our eligibility criteria.   

Who pays for Rebuilding Together Tulsa repairs?

All repairs are paid for by our Rebuilding Together Tulsa program and there is no cost to the homeowner. Funding comes from businesses, foundations, service organizations, government, clubs, churches and synagogues, associations, and individuals from our Tulsa community of neighbors who care.  All donations and contributions are tax deductible.
