Rebuilding Together San Gabriel Valley Habitat for Humanity Rises to Meet the Challenge After Devastation In the aftermath of recent wind and fire damage, our community is grappling with immense loss. Families have been displaced, homes destroyed, and the path to recovery feels overwhelming. Amid this devastation, SGV Habitat for Humanity is stepping up to lead the charge in rebuilding efforts, offering hope and lasting solutions to those affected. To kickstart these efforts, SGV Habitat has developed a proactive plan of action. This includes a call for community members to join the rebuilding process when it is safe to do so. Volunteers will play a vital role in restoring both homes and hope for families impacted by the disaster. Additionally, the organization has launched ReBUILD LA™, a wildfire recovery campaign. The ReBUILD LA™ Wildfire Recovery campaign was established to assist uninsured, underinsured, and low-income families affected by wildfires. The campaign focuses on providing assistance in rebuilding, relocating and repairing homes to ensure families have safe, stable housing.
Ways YOU Can Help Your generosity can help provide not only shelter but also hope and stability to families as they rebuild their lives from the ground up. Every donation and every act of kindness helps families rise from the ashes.
Donations to the ReBUILD LA® campaign will: Help those who have lost everything rebuild or relocate, ensuring they have a safe place to call home. Offer assistance to vulnerable survivors who have been left without options to afford housing.
