ORGANIZATIONAL SUMMARY

Revitalize Milwaukee is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization whose goal is to preserve affordable housing and
revitalize vulnerable neighborhoods throughout Milwaukee and Waukesha counties. We are the largest
provider of free home repairs to eligible homeowners in Southeast Wisconsin and the only one that provides
them for free. While we directly impact individuals and families, we also improve economic stability by
keeping long-term, existing homeowners in their homes. This stabilizes neighborhoods and the tax base paid
to the city.

Over time, health and safety issues develop from the inability to pay for repairs and other necessary services.
Without our free services, many Milwaukee residents would suffer serious injuries or even be forced to move
out of their homes that they’ve lived in for over 30 years.

We employ 15-30 City of Milwaukee licensed and insured minority contractors on a daily basis, providing
sustainable wages and helping the local economy.

We operate on an annual budget of 14.2 million dollars. Each dollar received is leveraged approximately 4:1,
creating a total reinvestment of $26 million dollars back into the community. Over 99% of our funding comes
from private sources (grants, corporations, and individuals).

Improve lives by providing FREE, professional home restoration, vital safety repairs and life-changing
accessibility modifications for low-income homeowners who are senior citizens, veterans and/or persons with
disabilities. Our impact is extended beyond the individuals served to revitalize and stabilize vulnerable
neighborhoods. Home by home, block by block, entire communities are transformed. Services include
accessibility improvements, electrical patch ups, energy efficiency upgrades, general renovations, plumbing
repairs, and security updates. Emergency repairs are also available and will be addressed within 24 – 48 hours
of the initial call.

Since 2000, RM has completed home modifications for more than 3260 homes with the help of over 24,000
hours of volunteer time and invested over $26 million into Milwaukee area housing. In 2021 alone we
completed over 1730 repairs at 287 homes, impacting 560 individuals.

RM has a proven track record of success and impact. Join our growing team to be part of our success!
