Rebuilding Together Metro Denver

Kathryn Arbor “Rebuilding Together Metro Denver” kicked off our “National Healthy Homes Conference“, on June 18, 2011 and June 19, 2011 with over 500 volunteers. As a volunteer for the 2 day’s I put on my “tool-belt”, took a paint brush, a shovel etc. and and the entire group accomplished a healthy living improvements to over 30 homes in the Barnum Neighborhood. It was a weekend well spent and a great opportunity for me to learn more about the following 2 year Pilot Program “Green Healthy Homes Initiative“, which a Grant was awarded to Denver and 14 other Cities throughout the Country.

Contact me if you’d like to learn more or find out how to become involved.
