A Sense of Community

The NAHB and the National Housing Endowment have created a new award to celebrate the philanthropy of home builders.

By:: Dave Wilson

Entrants will be evaluated on the reasons for the charitable programs or projects; how many community members benefit or are served per year; the anticipated long-term community benefits; how the project meets previously unfulfilled needs; and how any obstacles to initiating or completing the work were overcome, among other criteria.

For more information, or to download the award description and an entry form, visit www.nahb.org. For questions, contact Kym Kilbourne in the NAHB public affairs office at 800-368-5242, ext. 8447, or kkilbourne@nahb.org.

President, NAHB Washington, D.C.

Standard Pacific released first-quarter earnings post market close last night that beat Wall Street analysts' posted predictions. After a near brush with death in 2008, and life-support from MatlinPatterson's real estate funds, Standard Pacific's strategic, operational, and tactical planning and execution are playing well in what continues to be an adverse market environment in most of its competitive arenas.
