Homes4NC Affordable Housing Achievement Awards PDF Print E-mail

Are there individuals and organizations in your community that are making a difference for affordable housing? Perhaps you work or volunteer with an organization that has improved the quality of life in your community because of the housing opportunities it's provided.

The NC Association of Realtors Housing Opportunity Foundation would like to honor those who are making the biggest impact on affordable housing in North Carolina through the 2008 Homes4NC Affordable Housing Achievement Awards.

The awards program was established in 2005 to honor and learn from those whose hard work and innovation is leading the way to solving our most pressing housing challenges. The Homes4NC Affordable Housing Achievement Awards will help educate REALTORS and give the public about the critical need for affordable housing in our communities. They will also give well-deserved recognition to those programs and organizations leading the way.

The nomination deadline is June 27. You can visit www.Homes4NC.org for more information and click here for a nomination form.

NCHBA extends its congratulations to Matt Sherrill, winner of the 2008 N.C. SkillsUSA Carpentry Contest. Sherrill, 16, competed against 77 other carpentry students from across North Carolina to win the state title and will compete in the national competition in Kansas City, Mo. later this month, with the help of a$1,500 scholarship from NCHBA. 

Sherrill is a junior at N.F. Woods Advanced Technology Center in Mooresville, N.C. He is currently in his second year in the carpentry class under the instruction of Tommy Chester. Along with his carpentry class, Sherrill is involved in building a Habitat for Humanity House that will be dedicated on June 8 in Mooresville. When not studying or volunteering, Sherrill can be found working for his family's company, Innovate Cabinet Co. Other interests include baseball and girls.

Please join us in wishing both Sherrill and Chester the best of luck at the National SkillsUSA Carpentry Competition.
