THE BIG DAY APPROACHES
By Tim Clarke
April’s big day is soon upon us. Oh, not those big days, I’m talking about April 26th Rebuilding Day! Rebuilding Together Mountain Communities has worked, worried, and waited all year for this our 31st Rebuilding Day that’s now just a few weeks away.
All those that volunteer are privileged to be able to lift the weight of delayed or out-of-reach home repairs for others. In turn, we are enriched by our gift of time helping neighbors stay safe warm and dry in their own homes. It’s a “Good Thing” as Martha Stewart would say.
If you have always wanted to participate in this mountain institution or are a loyal supporter it’s time to sign up, and it’s so easy. Merely click the “Rebuilding Day Volunteer Application” button on the right and sign up. If all else fails, you can call 909-336-3910 and go analog.
If you can’t participate for whatever reason you can help by contributing to us electronically or by snail mail at the address below or web site.
This year has been a tough year for all of us and the organizations we support, and we are no exception. We have had to start a waiting list for emergency repairs until we can get additional funding for it, for the first time since the program was started. We are hoping for some corporate and or trust funding to come thru later in the year and we can restart this important program.
So, let’s come together to support those things that make a difference to ordinary people.

WE ARE NOT ALONE WHEN WE HOLD HANDS By Tim Clarke
Our mountain communities have traditionally been a community that sticks together and gives a helping hand to those who need it. With the existence of groups like Rebuilding Together Mountain Communities, community help has been channeled to those in need. Since 1994 we have assisted hundreds of homeowners in need, to stay in their own […]
REBUILDING TOGETHER IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER By Tim Clarke
Fire ravaged Los Angeles County this month, thousands of homes have been destroyed leaving neighborhoods unrecognizable. Our mountain neighborhoods sympathize with those caught up in this conflagration, as we have experienced the same over the years. The helplessness, uncertainty, chaos and mind-numbing worry they must be feeling. They must feel so small and insignificant when […]
ART AND CHARITY MERGE IN CEDAR GLEN By Tim Clarke
I had a chance to sit down with Robin Lyles owner of The Lake House in Cedar Glen to talk about her “First Friday events” and her support of mountain charities. We sat down in front of the fireplace in the comfy sofa and chairs in a living room type atmosphere of her gallery and […]
