National homebuilder funds team members'
holiday inspired philanthropic initiatives
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Dec. 30,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- For the eighth consecutive year,
America's Most Trusted® Home Builder Taylor Morrison (NYSE: TMHC) is bringing
its team members' holiday inspired philanthropic initiatives to
fruition through its annual program, Build Joy. This year, 14 team
members were each awarded $1,000 to make an impact in
their communities by supporting causes that are meaningful to
them.
Since the Build Joy program began in 2017, Taylor
Morrison has donated approximately $230,000 to help
bring over 100 philanthropic goals to life.
"Build Joy is an annual tradition that I look forward to every
year, as it empowers team members to support charitable causes that
are near and dear to their hearts," said Taylor Morrison Chairman and CEO Sheryl Palmer. "It's incredibly rewarding to
put the power of giving in our team members' hands and see how they
make the holiday season extra special in our local
communities."
This year's Build Joy projects expand across the country and
feature a variety of charitable causes that have personally moved
Taylor Morrison team members.
Projects include:
- Donating books to stock the shelves for a new library opening
at an autism-focused, tuition-free public charter school.
- Purchasing school supplies and holiday party favors for an
organization dedicated to providing preschool age children
with cancer the opportunity to learn and socialize in a safe
environment.
- Supporting a nonprofit that provides parents who are survivors
of domestic violence with the opportunity to shop for their
children's holiday gifts.
- Creating swag packs for children going into foster care,
complete with clothing, personal care items, stuffed animals, and
an encouraging handwritten note.
- Buying gift cards to help cover lodging expenses and meals for
parents of babies in the pediatric intensive care unit.
In Naples, FL, Office Manager
Casee Le is using her Build
Joy funds to support Fairytale Endings Rescue, a no-kill shelter
located in Charlotte County
dedicated to saving dogs from euthanasia. The entire facility was
destroyed by Hurricane Helene, including vital supplies like
blankets, kennels, and food. Fortunately, the dogs were rescued in
time and now the organization is focused on rebuilding.
"I am deeply inspired by the rescue's mission to give every dog
a second chance at life, and hope that our Build Joy donation can
replace some of the essentials that they lost in the storm," said
Le. "Supporting them feels like a meaningful way to ensure
they can continue their lifesaving work and bring hope to animals
who deserve a better future."
