Home Building Foundation’s (HBP) Education Partnership Program inspires students to pursue careers in residential construction through project-based learning. HBF and members of the HBA of Greater Portland provide materials and give their time to help students build meaningful projects that are donated to homeless shelters. Greater Portland’s HBF and HBA have forged strong connections with more than 33 high school and five adult construction pre-apprenticeship programs. An estimated 550 construction students have helped build tables, seating and sheds for Greater Portland shelter facilities.
