Block Builds
Our Goal.
Block Builds are our signature program and central to our mission of revitalizing Philadelphia communities.
What We Do.
Held three times a year, our two day Block Builds mobilize hundreds of volunteers, neighbors and homeowners to repair homes in a neighborhood of focus.
We evaluate all of our houses from top to bottom and provide the repairs needed to improve accessibility, energy efficiency and health outcomes .
Read about our Safe and Healthy Housing Goals to learn about how we prioritize repairs.
Watch volunteers in action.
See our volunteers in action at recent Block Build events and hear from a homeowner touched by their work.
