"The Gilbane team is very fortunate to have great industry and subcontracting partners that were able to donate this year. The combined efforts in fundraising and support will make a direct impact in the communities in Texas that we work and live. We are honored to give back and partner with these amazing organizations," said Scott Orr, Gilbane Building Company Senior Vice President and Texas Business Unit Leader.
The Texas Business Unit, located in Houston, chooses three to four charities each year to benefit from their annual charity golf tournament. The charities are chosen based on their impact to the community and their alignment with Gilbane's core values. The charities for 2021 are:
- The Ace Mentor Program mentors high school students and inspires them to pursue a career in design and construction.
- Camp for All is designed with no barriers for children and adults with special needs to experience camping and nature, just like their able-bodied peers.
- Folds of Honor provides scholarships to spouses and children of America's fallen and disabled service members.
- Rebuilding Together Houston helps Houstonians repair homes, revitalize communities, and rebuild lives.
