Rebuilding Together Works for Safe and Healthy Homes


Dedicated to providing healthy sleep products and mattress and furniture protection services, GBS Enterprises functions as a leading consumer goods company. Founded in 1988, GBS Enterprises specializes in the production and distribution of bedding and pillow protection merchandise, including anti-allergy bedding materials and mattress and furniture protectors. The company also maintains a commitment to giving back to the society through its involvement in various charities like Rebuilding Together.

Rebuilding Together has provided safe and healthy housing for over 40 years as a nonprofit organization. Starting as an effort to rehabilitate homes of the destitute in the neighborhood by a group of volunteers in Midland, Texas, the venture has now grown into a nationally recognized institution. The principal mission of the organization is to improve the homes and uplift the lives of low-income homeowners by convening alliances of communities and volunteers.

A five-time achiever of Charity Navigator’s four-star rating, Rebuilding Together is led by board chair Sherry Chris. Its outreach extends to over 2.6 million lives dwelling in unsafe homes. In the year 2016 alone, the organization repaired more than 9000 homes, 275 nonprofit and educational facilities, along with 84 community spaces. It works with its broad network of corporations, skilled-trade individuals, and various donors to achieve its mission. In addition, almost 100,000 volunteers join Rebuilding Together every year to further its cause.
