LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Today is National Rebuilding Day and hundreds of Las Vegas valley residents turned out to help their neighbors in need.

The organization Rebuilding Together Southern Nevada (RTSNV) hosted an event with teams that went out across the valley to do critical repairs for 15 homes belonging to low-income families.

The executive director of RTSNV said that all too often, its clients have to prioritize food or medicine over home repairs.

The work was all done at no cost.

Since its founding in 1994, RTSNV says it has repaired 8,000 homes in Southern Nevada.
