Thank You Honeywell - On October 15th, Rebuilding Together Baltimore partnered with volunteers from Honeywell to spruce up a nonprofit facility that provides transitional housing for women and their children.
Volunteers from INNterim, Morgan State University, the College of Notre Dame, Johns Hopkins University, and AmeriCorps NCCC joined Honeywell volunteers to complete repairs that positively impacted the health and well-being of the residents of this facility. Repairs included: painting, landscaping, debris removal, interior cosmetic repairs, electrical repairs, plumbing and bathroom repairs, and much more. It was a fantastic and hugely successful project. Many thanks to everyone who contributed their time to make this project happen and to Honeywell for their sponsorship! (view a slide show of the event)
