Rebuilding Hope, Inc. will hold a BBQ Chicken Fundraiser on Friday, September 27, 2019. The $7-a-plate dinners will be cooked and served at 414 Raleigh Road, the location of RHI’s office and warehouse in the former Coca-Cola building.

You’re invited to eat in or take out. Delivery of five or more plates to one location is available.

From their early morning arrival on the day of the fundraiser, to heating up the grills, to the meticulous task of filling small cups with barbecue sauce, to bagging slices of bread, RHI volunteers make this fundraiser happen year after year.

“Proceeds from the fundraisers help support our opportunities to witness for Christ as we make home repairs and build wheelchair ramps,” RHI coordinator Randolph Wilson said.

You may purchase your tickets at RHI’s office or from a volunteer.
