MassHousing, Mass. Mortgage Bankers and
Rebuilding Together Boston
For the third straight year, MassHousing volunteers joined the Mass. Mortgage Bankers
Association and Rebuilding Together Boston for a day of home repairs and renovations
for a family in need. This year’s effort repaired and revitalized a home owned by an elderly
widow who purchased her home in 1994 with her late husband, a disabled Veteran who
passed away in 2004. The property owner, who suffers from health problems and lives on
a fixed income, had been taken advantage of by dishonest contractors and lost money
trying to upkeep the home.
