There are few events in the homebuilding industry that combine professional excellence with a genuine commitment to making a difference quite like the Shore Consulting Sales & Marketing Leadership Summit. This year, HomeAid America was honored to return as one of Shore Consulting's Partners with a Purpose.
Recently, I had the opportunity to spend time with the incredible team at HomeAid North Texas, where I toured the "production" site for their innovative Bed Build program benefiting children served through the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS).
I have visited many HomeAid projects over the years, but this experience was unique.
At the end of May, I spent several days with Taylor Booth, Executive Director of HomeAid Southern Nevada, to see firsthand how the affiliate is expanding community partnerships, advancing high-impact projects, and building momentum across the Las Vegas region.
On a single night in 2025, 745,652 people across the United States experienced homelessness. The recently released 2025 AHAR provides a mix of encouraging news and sobering reality.
I recently returned from the Leading Suppliers Council (LSC) Spring Meeting in Washington, D.C., and I continue to reflect on how valuable the experience was.
While much of my time was dedicated to collaborating with the Education and Marketing Committee to support LSC training initiatives, the true highlights extended well beyond the official three-day agenda.
Earlier this spring, I continued my affiliate visits with time spent alongside the HomeAid National Capital Region (NCR) team. These visits are an opportunity to build relationships, see projects firsthand, meet affiliate staff and board members, and support local events.
As we recognize Women in Construction Week, I want to pause to express my deep appreciation for the extraordinary women who help lead HomeAid and our efforts across the country.
I recently had the privilege of attending HomeAid Houston’s annual HALO Luncheon, and I'm still thinking about the impact of that afternoon. Events like this always remind me why the HomeAid mission—to end homelessness—is so close to my heart, but this year’s luncheon felt especially meaningful.
