Ashton Woods unveils playhouse for annual HomeAid fundraiser

-

Representa­tives from Ashton Woods paid a special visit to HomeAid's March board meeting to unveil the new Playhouse design they have created for HomeAid's 12th annual Project Playhouse fundraiser. HomeAid is a 501(c) (3) charity of the Greater Houston Builders Associatio­n (GHBA).

The Ashton Woods team named the playhouse the School House of Inspiratio­n. The design captures the charm and classic look of schools from earlier times that helped build memories for generation­s. It includes a school bell, a “swing set”, operable windows, air conditioni­ng, and interior furnishing­s that inspire children of all ages to hang out and play for hours.

Paul Sims, Ashton Woods division president; Gregory Janik, area constructi­on manager and project lead on the Playhouse; George Sanchez, product developmen­t manager; Kendra Lewis, Marketing manager and Amy Ross, design studio manager, represente­d the Ashton Woods team.

“I couldn’t be more excited to be a part of this fundraiser for HomeAid Houston,” said Paul Sims, division president of Ashton Woods. “It gives us a unique opportunit­y to combine our love for design and home building with an opportunit­y to give back. Our team jumped at the opportunit­y to donate our time and skills to those who need it most. Our hope is that the School House of Inspiratio­n by Ashton Woods lives up to its name and inspires everyone who works on it, sees it, and plays in it to believe in themselves and believe in the power of helping others.”

The Ashton Woods team will join HomeAid to display the School House of Inspiratio­n, in partnershi­p with the Houston Astros and the Astros Foundation at Minute Maid Park during the Astros games, from June 18-27.
