HANDYMENSCH VOLUNTEERS
Yachad’s Handymensch program is a group of semi-skilled volunteers who work on a few repair projects a year. Volunteers must have some home repair experience, but can improve and learn new skills on the job. Groups of a few Handymensch go out quarterly to homes and non-profit sites with Yachad’s construction manager to tackle vital repairs.
NEIGHBOR TO NEIGHBOR
The Neighbor to Neighbor program offers an opportunity to financially sponsor the remediation of a home. All proceeds will go to cover the cost of skilled labor and materials. This is a great opportunity for a company, synagogue, church, or simply a group of friends to see that another person's home is made safe and functional. Yachad will customize an unique online giving platform dedicated to your campaign to raise funds for one of our homeowner clients.

SUKKOT IN SPRING
Sukkot in Spring is Yachad's signature spring program. Since 1992 hundreds of single-family homes, group houses and community centers have been repaired. Yachad recruits area synagogues and other Jewish groups to financially support the repair of a lower-income residents in our greater community. If you are an individual and a member of a local synagogue or Jewish group, please e-mail us to find out how to involve your congregation.
