What We Do
Aging in Place Services
Project Houseworks’ Aging in Place Services supports low-income older adult homeowners by offering repairs and home modifications at no cost. This program aims to help older adults live comfortably and independently in their homes. It is carried out by a skilled professional construction team with more than six decades of residential construction experience.
Home Affordability Program
Project Houseworks’ Home Affordability Program helps low-income families and persons achieve the dream of home ownership by providing affordable purchasing opportunities.
Warm The Metro
Each fall, Members of the Heating and Cooling Contractors Association (HACCA) volunteer to provide furnace maintenance checks and free repairs (sometimes even replacements) for homeowners enrolled in Project Houseworks.
Brush Up
Our 36th annual fundraiser and volunteer event, Brush Up, will take place on Friday and Saturday, August 15 and 16, 2025. Volunteer teams will paint homes for over 25 low-income older adults and immigrant and refugee families in Douglas and Sarpy Counties.
