Located in the heart of Tampa, the new headquarters and accompanying warehouse space will strengthen Rebuilding Together Greater Florida’s ability to serve homeowners, mobilize volunteers, and expand critical home repair efforts throughout the region. The facility will serve as a hub for operations, community engagement, volunteer coordination, and disaster recovery initiatives that help homeowners remain safe, healthy, and in the homes they love.
The celebration began with a networking hour that brought together staff, community partners, nonprofit leaders, business professionals, elected officials, and longtime supporters of Rebuilding Together Greater Florida’s mission.

The organization was also honored to have Alec Huskey of the Ybor City Chamber of Commerce serve as the event’s master of ceremonies.
Throughout the evening, speakers reflected on the importance of affordable housing, neighborhood revitalization, disaster recovery, and ensuring that vulnerable homeowners have access to the resources they need to age safely in place and remain part of the communities they call home.
The event concluded with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony and guided tours of the new facility. Attendees had the opportunity to explore the space and learn more about how the headquarters will support future programs, partnerships, and community impact initiatives.
