Young Professionals Raise $13,000 for BUILD-PAC
NAHB’s Young Professionals Committee rallied together to raise more than $13,000 for BUILD-PAC at a virtual golfing fundraiser following the 2024 NAHB Legislative Conference in Washington, D.C.
YP members include the home building industry’s rising stars from around the country age 45 and younger. Their willingness to donate to the PAC’s mission in helping elect pro-housing, pro-building candidates shows there’s a bright future ahead.
“It’s inspiring to see the difference that we’re making,” said Anya Chrisanthon, a YP member and chief communication officer at Anewgo. “Being in the nation’s capital and seeing that we can influence lawmakers directly is pretty incredible.”
Prior to the fundraiser, the YP members were among more than 900 NAHB members who went to Capitol Hill to meet directly with lawmakers to show how key housing issues impact the broader economy.
Eric Visser — a YP member and owner of Visser Construction, who made the trip to the nation’s capital from Anchorage, Alaska — cited the importance of lawmakers meeting in person with those who want to influence change for the industry and help address the nation’s housing affordability crisis.
“I think we showed that we want to be at the table,” Visser said. “It shows Congress that we are serious about housing affordability, and we are willing to put our own money into this cause to make an impact.”
