The BIAW Member Services Corporation has extended its matching gift opportunity into the New Year! Give today and you can double your gift to the Washington Home Builders Foundation (WHBF) up to $60,000! This is the perfect time to give.
BIAW’s Washington Home Builders Foundation awarded $58,000 in scholarships and grants in 2024. Those funds gave opportunities to 25 students and eight construction trades programs across Washington. Learn about all the scholarship and grant winners in October’s Building Insight.
The foundation’s also hard at work preparing a new Construction Trades Training Academy to train the home building workforce of the future. The academy is accepting applicants for its first cohort starting in February!
Can we count on your support?
Yes! I’ll GIVE TODAY
Build the pipeline of future talent
Supporting workforce education helps paint pathways to the trades. It helps workers build skills so we have enough qualified professionals to meet the demand for new homes and renovations as our members retire.
Maintain our legacy of high-quality homes
As many of us prepare for retirement, Washington will need a highly trained workforce to continue our tradition of building high-quality homes. When new builders and contractors have access to education and training, they can deliver superior craftsmanship, enhancing property values and driving homeowner satisfaction.
Ignite our economy
Workforce education initiatives create jobs and ignite our economy. They not only prepare individuals for careers in home building but also generate employment opportunities within the education and training sector itself. A strong home-building industry contributes to community development. New homes create vibrant neighborhoods and boost local economies through increased construction and related activities.
Matching gift opportunity extended
Due to interest from donors across Washington, MSC is continuing to match donations up to $60,000. Thank you to those who’ve already contributed!
If you haven’t, don’t miss your chance to take advantage of this matching opportunity to make your dollars go further this year!
Supporting workforce opportunities in the home building industry is an excellent way to develop future leaders while empowering individuals and building communities.
When you give to the Washington Home Builders Foundation, you’re investing in the future of the home building industry!
