On April 26th , we returned to Florida City for our signature multi-home [Re]Build of the year joined by over 100 amazing volunteers to revitalize 7 homes for families in need. This day would not have been possible without the support from our incredible partners: City of Florida City & Florida City CRA, NBCU Telemundo, Coastal Construction, Turner Construction, Janney Montgomery Scott, Italian Women USA Miami, and The Home Depot.
Spending the day out in the community is the best way to see the real Miami. Drata Inc teamed up with us to paint a single mother’s home in Brownsville, while here for their annual conference. It was a great day to meet new people and learn new skills!
BB America’s Bank is a champion ad major supporter of our SheBuilds initiative. During March, they spent a rainy day in the community with us, painting the home of a woman Veteran, celebrating the role of women in housing and service. Thank you!
In March, we celebrated the incredible impact of women in construction and the nonprofit sector! We teamed up with Bank of America to revitalize the home of a dedicated nonprofit employee, who loves her community. A huge thank you to the amazing women from Bank of America who joined us on a Saturday morning, your hard work and passion made a difference!
In December, we spent the morning with BB Americas Bank beautifying the home of a 92- year-old homeowner in South Miami. Volunteers completed exterior painting and landscaping, helping prepare the home to welcome family and friends for the holidays.
Our annual Veterans Day event with The Home Depot Foundation was another meaningful weekend of service. Through three separate projects, we were honored to give back to three Veterans and their families throughout Miami. Thanks to The Home Depot Foundation’s longstanding support of our Veterans at Home Program, we are able to ensure our Veterans live in safe, comfortable, and well-maintained homes.
Just in time for the peak of hurricane season, we hosted our first-ever Disaster Preparedness Kit Giveaway in the City of Opa-locka. In just 90 minutes, we distributed more than 55 free kits to community members. The need was clear, and we are excited to expand this event in the future to reach even more families. A huge thank you to our volunteers and partners from The Home Depot Foundation, Miami-Dade Department of Emergency Management, CERT, and United Way Miami for making this event possible.
In September, associates from Wells Fargo volunteered to help beautify a home in Little Bahamas. We are proud of our longstanding partnership with Wells Fargo, which supports our mission to provide safe and healthy housing in our communities. Thanks to their continued support, we were able to complete safety improvements in three homes in 2025.

The FRH branch in Opa Locka, established 50 years ago, has deep ties to the area’s military history, centered around its 1918 Navy blimp hangar and WWII-era airport, which trained thousands of pilots. As the airport grew, military housing and community resources, including a Post for veterans and active-duty personnel, were built nearby. The FRH, part of The Military Coalition, advocates for Sea Services personnel on Capitol Hill, provides legislative guidance, career support, and operates community centers nationwide. Despite multiple hurricane damages, the Opa Locka branch, led by two dedicated Navy veterans, aims to revitalize the Post as a community hub. The Hall hosts a bar, kitchen, and offices, while the Pavilion serves as a space for BBQs and events. Adjacent to a senior veterans’ housing facility, the Pavilion could become a safe gathering space for elderly veterans to enjoy recreational activities. For Veterans Day we partnered with the Home Depot Foundation to give the facility a facelift including paint, landscaping, appliances, seating areas and more!
