Volunteer Spotlight: Bill Marshall
After he sold his business building high-end homes in Connecticut and the Hamptons, Bill Marshall moved to Arlington in 2017 to join his wife. Getting antsy after a few months of retirement, Bill began searching for a new way to direct his energies. He learned about Rebuilding Together Arlington/Fairfax/Falls Church through Volunteer Arlington and started volunteering regularly on Rebuilding Together Express projects, in which small teams of skilled volunteers make health and safety repairs at no charge for low-income homeowners.
