2023 Help Build Hope
The Building Industry Charitable Foundation (BICF) partnered with Crossroads Ministries to provide much needed housing to flood victims in Eastern Kentucky.
On Wednesday, April 19, members of the Building Industry Association of Greater Louisville worked with Crossroads Ministries to construct wall sections for three homes that will be used in the Appalachian Service Project for flooded areas in East Kentucky. The event brought together 140 construction professionals to cut, construct, and deliver the wall sections. Volunteers from K-I Lumber, River City Bank, PC Home Stores, RJ Thieneman, Carpet Specialists, Automated Living, Pella Windows & Doors, L&N Federal Credit Union, and many others were on hand during this event.
BICF Past Projects
2022 Help Build Hope
During the Mayor's Give A Day of service the BIA's charitable foundation BICF partnered with Crossroads Ministries and Help Build Hope to construct all of the wall sections for a home that was damaged during the tornados in Western Kentucky. Our members donated their time, talent, and treasure to this project. The walls were transported from our parking lot to Dawson Springs, Kentucky to rebuild a home that was damaged in a tornado.
2022 Ramp Project
Our recipient Luke Madsoni can now easily access his home. Don Wirtzberger was able to build the ramp seen in the linked video for Luke.
Thank you Don for your hard work and dedication.
2020 Playhouse Project
Our 2020 Building Industry Charitable Foundation Playhouse recipient was Jane. Due to the circumstances and the ongoing pandemic, Jane's playhouse was built in her backyard, and she was able to have her reveal party at home.
Thank you to all of our vendors who donated their time and materials for Jane's playhouse this year. A special thanks to Tom Waller Signature Homes, Kosair Charities, and River City Bank.
