Rebuilding Together Southern Nevada, the Jeff Civillico local nonprofit that repairs and renovates the homes of low-income homeowners, collaborated with Caesars Entertainment employees, the Caesars Foundation, cast members from Chippendales and Jeff Civillico to help military veterans with much needed home repairs, while providing exterior upkeep and maintenance to homes on the 3300 block of Twining Street in North Las Vegas.

Jeff Civillico On Nov. 10, more than 250 Caesars’ HERO volunteers and its top meeting and events customers provided critical repairs and sustainability upgrades to five homes. Recipients saw a wide range of repairs and modifications such as bathroom and plumbing maintenance, roof replacement, fence repairs, abathroom remodel to make it handicap accessible, and a new HVAC system.  The homes, located on the 3300 block of Twining Street, are the property of longtime Las Vegas residents and military veterans who, combined, have lived in the neighborhood nearly 55 years. 

Additionally, in keeping with the spirit of Rebuilding Together’s mission of neighborhood revitalization, Caesars volunteers made exterior repairs, assisted with property cleanup and curbside painting to the remaining 23 houses on the block.  Volunteers also provided homeowners with energy efficiency kits consisting of compact florescent light bulbs, thermometers, outlet gaskets and other items that will increase long-term energy efficiency.
