REBUILDING TOGETHER PEORIA

We are the Peoria affiliate of Rebuilding Together, Inc. We are an independent 501(c)3 organization originated in 1993 as Christmas in April (CIA) Peoria. As CIA programs were established across the nation, many affiliates grew and expanded their services, completing projects not only in April, but throughout the year. In recognition of that fact, a new name was chosen by the organization in 2000 — Rebuilding Together, Inc.

Each affiliate is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of local volunteers.
