Hundreds of GHBA members have participat­ed in the Benefit Homes Project throughout its 39 year history. Two to three homes are built with donated materials, labor, services and time. The Benefit Homes Project has raised $11 million since it began.

Not one year has gone by since then, that GHBA’s generous vendors/suppliers and trades have not made this happen. Everything from the land, surveys, constructi­on and closings have been donated. The companies that participat­e range from large national organizati­ons, to local one-man operations.
