NAHB Launches Fundraising Campaign for the Home Building Industry Disaster Relief Fund
NAHB is committed to Building Homes, Enriching Communities and Changing Lives. When disaster strikes, these principles take on an even greater meaning.
To help fulfill this mission, NAHB has launched a matching campaign to support rebuilding efforts in communities impacted by natural disasters. NAHB will match dollar-for-dollar all donations made Nov. 1, 2024, through March 1, 2025, to the Home Building Industry Disaster Relief Fund (HBIDRF) — a recognized 501(c)(3) charitable organization — up to $500,000.
All funds raised for the HBIDRF through this matching campaign will support the partnership of local charities and state and local home builders’ associations to address the rebuilding needs of devastated communities.
Since 2005, the HBIDRF has disbursed over $2 million to assist areas across the U.S. affected by natural disasters, including recovery efforts from hurricanes, tornadoes, floods and wildfires.
To learn more about the HBIDRF and how you can support this campaign, visit homebuildersfund.org.
