07 Apr Homefront day: May 2, 2015

Build your DIY skills by helping a neighbor in the Connecticut area. 2015 marks the 28th annual HomeFront Day: a day of fun, hands-on home repair provided by teams of volunteers at no cost to the homeowner.

Each year thousands of volunteers—from completely novice to professional trades people—work together to repair homes, shelters and community centers. It’s a great way to learn and lend a helping hand. Over the years, HomeFront has helped over 140 communities.

Find a team in your area, or start your own.

2015 HomeFront Day is Saturday, May 2
