Sharing our blessings during the holidays.
Holiday Toy Drive
In mid December at the annual President's Luncheon, members of the Maryland-National Capital Building Industry Association (MNCBIA) contribute greatly to the Home Builders Care Foundation's Holiday Toy Collection. At the event, toys, games, clothing and other items are generously donated.

Thanksgiving Food Drive
Did you know that in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area, including Suburban Maryland, there are approximately 640,000 residents at risk of or experiencing hunger?
At the Fall Dinner Meetings of the Maryland-National Capital Building Industry Association (MNCBIA), Home Builders Care collects bags of food from association members and their guests. The non-perishable food items that are collected are then donated to a local food pantry serving the homeless and other at-risk individuals needing assistance. Our annual Thanksgiving Food Drive regularly nets hundreds of bags of food thanks to the generosity of the building community. In addition to the food, Home Builders Care contributes gift certificates to area grocery stores for the purchase of additional items.

Each and every year, the Home Builders Care Foundation organizes at least two holiday drives to benefit local community organizations serving the needy. Despite the economy, building industry members have continued to give generously during the holiday seasons.
