This past Wednesday, volunteers helped build a wheelchair ramp in front of a Veteran’s home. Rebuilding Together Twin Cities built the ramp with support from Republic Services.

“If we were to contract this project out, it’d be about $15,000. By having Republic sponsor and build the ramp, we’re letting (Minnesota Assistance Council for Veterans) take that $15,000 and use it toward another program,” explains Tony Sjogren, the program director for Rebuilding Together Twin Cities.
