New Directions' Repair Affair utilizes volunteers to assist low-income, elderly and people living with disabilities with FREE home repairs. In just one day, a volunteer team can completely change the life of a homeowner in need. Repairs range from low skill yard work and paint to high skill repairs like gutters, handrails, locksets, grab bars, flooring, toilets, faucets and more. Teams can range in size from as small as 2 to as large as 50. But due to COVID-19, we are limiting teams to 10 or fewer people per house. Teams can volunteer for as little as 4 hours to more than one day.
Once a team signs up, they will be matched with a homeowner. Repair Affair staff is onsite to show teams what repairs they will taking on, and to help guide the team through their project.
