I’m racing a Spartan Race with Race2Rebuild’s Pick Your Own Race Program to help families come home after natural disasters by supporting the 25 year-old national nonprofit Rebuilding Together.

Race2Rebuild was created in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy by a team of volunteer athletes to support rebuilding efforts. We fund Rebuilding Together’s disaster relief projects. To date, Rebuilding Together has served over 3.2 million people, is in the top 1% of all charities and has rebuilt over 1000 homes in New Orleans post-Katrina.
In our first season, athletes raced two races to Race2Rebuild two homes for two families. Following each race, athletes had the opportunity to volunteer with Rebuilding Together to rebuild their homes. Click here to learn more about our first season.
This year, Race2Rebuild is racing three major races and continues to offer athletes a “Pick Your Own Race” or PYOR option. The races will be coordinated with Rebuilding Together so that we may again create a personal, ongoing and lasting connection with each Rebuilding Together Sponsored Family.
Race2Rebuild is powered by a 100% volunteer team of athletes, skilled professionals, sponsors, partners and board of directors. By keeping our operating costs at the very minimum, we maximize the funds raised for each Rebuilding Together Sponsored Family. Click here to get involved.
Home by home, block by block, Rebuilding Together is rebuilding homes and communities nationwide. Mile by mile, Race2Rebuild supports that mission.
