"I have been involved with Christmas in April and now Rebuilding
Together (RTO) for over 14 years. I have served as
Previewer, House Captain and Facility Captain for homes, single
family dwellings, multi-family dwellings, churches, schools,
Children's Fairyland and Youth Facilities in Oakland. I am a
native of Oakland, born and raised and still reside here. My
vast knowledge in construction as a General Contractor has allowed
me to be able to give back not only to the less fortunate and ones
in need but also to the volunteers who want to give back to the
community. This giving back shows up in many ways. When
you volunteer for RTO your hands on experience goes way beyond just
learning how to repair the leaking pipe or the swing of a hammer.
RTO is about changing lives, it is about humanity it
is for the future of our community and the people in the community.
This space where RTO stands is a reflection of who and what we are.
Thank you to RTO and all the volunteers for what everyone
brings to this great organization."

146 Wildwood Ave, Piedmont CA 94610
"My name is Frank Silver and I own and run a small-medium
sized residential remodeling company (licensed 24 years). We
work locally in Piedmont, Rockridge, Montclair and the Oakland and
Berkeley Hills. FMSProjects is an award winning company - we
have been recognized for projects both in kitchen and bathroom
categories as well as whole house remodels and historical
restorations. Interestingly, it was my daughter that helped
me become involved in RTO , through Venture Crew as well as the
connection with The Boy Scouts. In that my expertise is
exactly in working with residential houses I have found my
volunteer time to be a double pleasure - being able to help the
homeowners as well as teach teens proper and safe skills that they
can use for a lifetime."
