Overview

Mission

The education foundation is an organization aimed at providing opportunities through funding to further education and training within the construction industry. The group fundraises from the members of the asheville home builders association and the greater community and gives the funds to individuals and groups.

What it reported doing in 2024

The asheville home builders education foundation fundraised at the golf tournament hosted by the builders association of the blue ridge mountains. They allowed participants to donate and hit marshmallows instead of golf balls to see how far they could go and try to win a prize. 11 people volunteered in exchange for money to be donated to our organization. The organization was able to expand visibility of the foundation at the builders association of the blue ridge mountains signature events. The organization remained focused on strengthening wnc's construction workforce while also stepping into a new role supporting community recovery needs following hurricane helene. The organization established its role in the community by beginning to accept, manage, and distribute funds related to hurricane helene recovery for members and local rebuilding efforts. The organization sustained partnerships with local schools, nonprofits, and training programs - including projects like the shedquarters builda nd construction career networking events to provide hands-on learning and industry exporusre.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and liabilities are high compared with assets.
