In a collaborative effort between Rebuilding Together Broward County and Rebuilding Together Tampa Bay, we partnered with The Weather Channel and Home Depot to transform homes that were affected by Hurricane Ian in Fort Myers, FL and Hurricane Irma in Broward County, FL.
Together with volunteers and the support of each community, our crew worked from sunrise to sundown, completing major renovations on a total of four homes in four weeks! This was no easy undertaking, but thanks to everyone’s hard work and commitment, together we knocked these projects out of the park, impacting the lives of the homeowners and their families as well as their communities.
This project was recorded for a national television series (Fast: Home Rescue) and will air on The Weather Channel summer 2023.
