Where: Rebuilding Together Central Ohio 2771 East 4th Avenue Columbus, OH 43219
When: Tuesday, September 25, 2018 10am
What:
Believing that doing good can be good business,
a team of students and faculty from The Ohio State University worked with Rebuilding
Together Central Ohio (RTCO) as part of the pilot C-Biz program funded in
partnership with the Columbus City Council.
The challenge? How to modernize the
organization and create a sustainable system for growth. The collaborators’ big idea – Mod Squad,
Central Ohio's go-to source for handyman services. The bonus? Every Mod Squad
project helps fund grants for eligible low-income Central Ohio seniors to make
needed home repairs.
