Wells Fargo and Rebuilding Together Fund Home Repairs in 30 Cities

The initiative, part of the ongoing Wells Fargo Builds program, addresses the often-overlooked necessity of maintaining current housing stock to ensure long-term affordability. By prioritizing structural repairs and safety improvements, the collaboration seeks to prevent displacement and keep residents in their established neighborhoods.

Maureen Carlson, President and CEO of Rebuilding Together, noted that the cost-efficiency of repairing existing homes allows for a wider reach than new builds. The partnership, which has funneled more than $18 million into revitalization efforts since 2017, continues to emphasize that stable housing serves as a foundational element for resilient communities. Leaders from both organizations gathered in Novato, California, to mark the latest phase of this long-standing commitment to community-based housing solutions.
