About 300 volunteers will start their Saturday morning by rolling up their sleeves to improve some Tulsa homes.

14 homes will get upgrades like new siding, paint, windows, and larger bathrooms to accommodate wheel chairs tomorrow.

Rebuilding Together Tulsa is on track to help 200 homeowners with project needs this fiscal year.

This is the 14th year to help those in need. "People just don't lend a hand like they used to. To find people that will come out for no money to donate their time is impressive," said home help recipient Ann Smith
