Volunteer carpenters install a wheelchair ramp at a home in the Swansboro neighborhood of South Side near George Wythe High School. The volunteers were among 800 people who worked in the neighborhood Saturday to repair and improve 40 homes for low-income elderly homeowners. The nonprofit Rebuilding Together Richmond organized the one-day blitz in celebration of National Rebuilding Day. This is the 23rd year that RTR, once known as Christmas in April, has led this free neighbor-helping-neighbor effort to spruce up homes for those in need.
