THE CANADIAN HOME BUILDERS ’ ASSOCIATION – LETHBRIDGE REGION ( CHBA – LR ) is pleased to present the fifth year of the College Home Project featuring Stranville Living Master Builder , a local home builder , proudly stepping up to lead the final year of the project for 2017 . In early 2013 , CHBA – LR and Lethbridge College announced the beginning of the College Home Project where CHBA – LR builder members , trades , and suppliers partner to build 10 homes over five years with the proceeds from the homes ’ sales donated to the trades and technologies facility at Lethbridge College .
“ It ’ s been truly incredible to be a part of an industry who takes such pride in leading not only in innovation but in philanthropy and truly leading by example . Our members know without a doubt that in order for great building practices to be sustained , it takes top-notch training . The Association and its members are very pleased with the success of the program and look forward to seeing the completed facility ,” remarked Angela Cornforth , CHBA – LR President .
“ We understand that building great homes and providing outstanding post-possession service is only possible by using the highest quality products installed by highly trained industry professionals ,” said Dell Mathews , General Manager , Stranville Living Master Builder . “ Stranville Living Master Builder embraces the opportunity to contribute financially to the training of our local workforce through the world-class facility at the Lethbridge College , and is honoured to be associated with the College Home Project for the second time .” “ It ’ s terrific to have a builder like Stranville Living see the value of this partnership and return to lead the project for a second time ,” added Lethbridge College President and CEO , Paula Burns . “ Opening up the build to smaller contractors , many of whom are college alumni who want to give back is very heartening , and is a perfect way to complete the five-year College Home partnership .”
