Rebuild Upstate recently received a $12,500 donation from IBERIABANK and First Horizon to support home repair for low-income homeowners in the Upstate. Rebuild Upstate receives public and private funds to support home repairs across Greenville, Anderson, Pickens, and Oconee counties. Through its work, the organization hopes to raise awareness of the need for more affordable housing in Upstate communities.

We are proud to support Rebuild Upstate as they continue their great work in helping solve critical affordable housing issues in Greenville.
