Through our C'ville Builds program, Building Goodness Foundation is able to serve 40 local partners in the Charlottesville and surrounding areas each year. That includes helping other non-profits, low-income homeowners, and small businesses with their construction needs! Through our connections with designers, builders, and suppliers, we are able to complete essential repairs and renovations that keep homeowners in their homes, increase nonprofits' capacities to serve, and keep small businesses' doors open.
All of our local projects start with an initial site visit that is conducted with a BGF staff member and a skilled volunteer - which could be you! At the initial visit, we meet with the partner or homeowner to assess their needs and look over the site or building. We are seeking skilled builders who have an eye for detecting issues and finding solutions as we rely on our volunteers to help us determine project priorities and needs. Builders that can assess all aspects of a building are preferred, but builders with a specific specialty are welcome too!
Site visits usually take place within Charlottesville and the surrounding counties. They typically last half an hour to an hour.
