Building Our Community




Changing Lives


We partner with Cedar Valley Habitat for Humanity to build new homes for families in need of affordable housing in our community as part of a biennial nationwide Home Builders Blitz. Local builders, suppliers, and subcontractors come together to build 3 homes in 5 days to build stronger families, better neighborhoods and brighter futures in our community.

Developing Our Future


We provide endowed scholarships through the Kirkwood Community College Foundation to local high school students pursuing a career in the home building industry and related trades. We strive to make a substantial impact on students’ success in the classroom and beyond, and ensure we are doing our part to address the need for skilled employees, economic stimulus, and retention of talent in our community.
