America's Most Trusted® Home
Builder built this year's charity home
AUSTIN,
Texas, Aug. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
Taylor Morrison, America's Most Trusted® Home
Builder, and the Home Builders Association of Greater Austin (HBA) today announced the
completion of the HBA Benefit Home located in the Taylor
Morrison Travisso community. Taylor
Morrison donated the residential lot and built the charity
home. The proceeds of the sale will benefit the HBA, and the HBA
will donate half of the funds to HomeAid Austin, a local non-profit
providing supportive housing and services for the at risk and
unhoused population.
The HBA Benefit Home is the annual construction of a home built
mostly – if not entirely – through donations of construction
management, materials, supplies, labor and financial support of the
members of the Home Builders Association of Greater
Austin. The Benefit Home offers the HBA a unique opportunity
to give back to the larger community, specifically to designated
beneficiaries who are significantly and positively impacting the
Greater Austin
community.
"Our team was truly inspired to sponsor and build this year's
Benefit Home, as we are community-centric and strive to create
lasting impressions on our neighbors," said Taylor Morrison Austin
Division President, April Whitaker.
"We are thankful for the opportunity to continue our philanthropic
work with the Home Builders Association of Greater Austin and look forward to seeing how
the proceeds bring projects to fruition for HomeAid Austin."
Since the construction of the first Benefit Home in 1991, the
HBA of Greater Austin and its
members have raised over $2.7 million for local charities
through this program.
"For over three decades, the Benefit Home has played a
significant role in giving back to the community and it wouldn't be
possible without support from the sponsors and members of the HBA,"
said Home Builders Association of Greater Austin CEO, Taylor Jackson. "Taylor
Morrison continues to positively impact the local community
through its philanthropy, and we could not be more grateful for
their contribution as this year's sponsor and builder."
