“Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more.”
- H. Jackson Brown
The spirit of giving can be experienced at the holidays and every day. The Builders Association Charity (BAC) serves
many families in our community in dire need of financial, physical and emotional assistance. You can make a difference
for a family by adopting them for a year or for a select holiday. (Christmas, Easter, and Spring or Summer Break).
As responsible business men and women, we understand that we build a stronger community by sharing resources in
times of disaster, tragedy or dire need. It is with this philanthropic spirit that we ask you assistance in this endeavor.
BAC is already assisting families with travel expenses to out-of-state facilities for doctor and hospital appointments; medical services not covered by insurance; temporary medical equipment and home care as authorized by a physician and rent if they are facing eviction. We have repaired cars and purchased tires when families are required to get an ill child to the doctor's office. Now you can give these families some supplemental support.
Many families survive hand to mouth and do not have extras. Here are some ways you can help:
-
Food items for the various holidays
-
Clothing for the kids
-
Prepaid gasoline cards
-
Prepaid phone cards
-
Food gift certificates at local markets
-
Toys for the holidays
-
Wild Island passes for the summer
-
Movie tickets for the family
-
Gift card for dinner at one of our local restaurants
If you are interested in participating in helping a needy family during the holidays or throughout the year, please call 775/329-2424 and we will match the need of the families to your commitment. |
