Episode 69: Aina Gutierrez-Evanston Rebuilding Warehouse
This week, on Inside the Skev, we sit down with Aina Gutierrez, the Executive Director of Evanston Rebuilding Warehouse, an Evanston-based non-profit organization that promotes the reduction of waste in landfills through sustainable deconstruction and renovation building practices. Reclaimed building materials are sold at their warehouse at low cost to the community and the proceeds support their education, job-training and job-development programs which foster individual, community and economic growth in Evanston and beyond.
Evanston Rebuilding Warehouse is planning a move this fall, into a new and larger facility one block from their current location in Evanston. There is a crowd funding campaign to raise money for the space through July 24, 2020 that will be matched by a generous donor. You can donate by clicking here. You can also shop and learn more by stopping by the current warehouse located at 2101 Dempster Street, Evanston IL 60201.
