Big thanks to all of the volunteers and sponsors in 2014 who helped make our 32 ReBuildUp events for approximately 500 participants possible. Special nod to sponsors Summit Credit Union and Greensboro Municipal Credit Union who sponsored several events throughout the year. Greensboro Public Library was also a major help by hosting 17 of these 32 events. Click Here for details and pictures of each event.
So again, much appreciation and looking forward to making an impact in 2015!
