Rainbow acquires properties through purchase or donation; rehabilitates the property as needed; and resells the property to qualified low-income families. Rainbow also provides free or reduced cost repair services and accessibility improvements for qualified, low-income homeowners. Our rehabilitation and repair work is done by volunteers, both skilled and unskilled. As needed, Rainbow uses licensed contractors to complete electrical, plumbing or HVAC work.
Rainbow is an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff and very low operating expenses. Office space is provided by St Stephen Lutheran Church. Our operating expenses consist of the costs of phone service, accounting services, insurance, annual fees to the State, office supplies and basic tools and construction supplies. All other available funds go directly to services to the community. Our bank records are available for review upon request.
The members of our Board of Directors are dedicated local citizens with a commitment to do something positive to address the affordable housing crisis in our community. (See “Who We Are”)
