Rebuilding Together Saratoga

Rebuilding Together Saratoga, a non-profit organization headquartered in Ballston Spa, New York, operates as a federal grant recipient providing housing rehabilitation services to very low- and low-income rural residents across New York. The organization has secured Rural Housing Preservation Grants (CFDA 10.433) from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Housing Service as a prime recipient and executes housing rehabilitation work through sub-awarded grants managed by pass-through entities.

Rebuilding Together Saratoga's federal footprint centers on rural housing preservation and rehabilitation. The organization has received five prime awards under the Rural Housing Preservation Grants program from the USDA Rural Housing Service since 2022, including a $148,127 award dated August 29, 2026 (ultimate completion October 2027), a $231,725 award dated July 5, 2024, and a $237,655 award dated October 29, 2023. A sixth prime award—a cooperative agreement dated October 1, 2021 under the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Older Adults Home Modification Grant Program—runs through September 2025. Under these grants, Rebuilding Together Saratoga conducts comprehensive housing rehabilitation including home repairs, accessibility modifications, and manufactured housing replacements for eligible rural populations. The organization also serves as a sub-recipient on federal housing grants, with eleven sub-awards recorded since 2023 covering homeowner rehabilitation, housing rehabilitation for owner-occupied properties, and manufactured housing replacement.

The organization's customer base is narrow and concentrated. The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service accounts for six awards (78% of the named customer portfolio by count), with the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard Control contributing one award. The combined obligated dollars across all eighteen prime and sub awards total $12.4 million, with multiple USDA awards since 2023 exceeding $600,000 in cumulative value and a prior HUD award reaching $1 million.

Activity has grown modestly year over year, from one award in 2022 to five in both 2025 and 2026. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Rebuilding Together Saratoga operates primarily as a grant recipient rather than a federal contractor, with no federal prime contracts or IDVs and no sub-contract work under federal procurement vehicles; its federal footprint consists entirely of federal grant awards and sub-awards flowing from HUD and USDA housing programs targeted at rural and low-income populations.
