Community Makes the Work Possible
Every successful home-repair project depends on people who are willing to help. Contractors, suppliers, volunteers, donors, churches, businesses and civic organizations all have something valuable to contribute.
The Faatz Foundation welcomes community partners who can provide building materials, professional services, financial support, volunteer labor or assistance with fundraising events.
By working together, we can stretch available resources further, respond to more critical needs and help additional Brunswick County families remain safely at home.
