Canadian Home Sales Edge Higher In June
GREATER TORONTO — Members of the Building Industry and Land Development Association (BILD) raised more than $45,000 toward its community partner Habitat for Humanity GTA at the association's fifth annual Race for Humanity and 22nd annual Charity BBQ.
More than 650 builders, developers, renovators and service professionals attended the fundraiser, hosted on BILD's front lawn, which raised money for BILD's 2014 partner family. Since 2003, BILD members have helped 11 families realize their dream of homeownership.
The Charity BBQ was preceded by the 5th annual Race for Humanity-a scavenger hunt consisting of 28 teams competing against each other by solving clues around the City of Toronto. The event, presented by the Toronto Star and In2ition Realty, has been recognized with international awards and nominations numerous times since its inception.
"These two annual events are another example of our industry's strong legacy of giving back through volunteerism, philanthropy and sponsorship," said BILD President and CEO Bryan Tuckey. "I am proud to represent an association whose members are so committed to making the GTA a better place to live for future generations."
