The National Home Builders Association awarded Home Building Association and Home Building Foundation of Greater Portland a 2023 Association Excellence Award for “Best Workforce Development Plan Implemented”.

Each shelter project HBF completes involves hundreds of hours of work, and the generosity of the community. First, our nonprofit partners reach out to see if HBF can help repair, remodel, or build a facility to help people in need.

HBF and members of the residential building community have been working for more than a year to shore up the aging houses that Project Homeless Connect uses to provide services.
