KB Home announced a newest volunteer program supporting those in need throughout Northeast Florida.
Home From the Heart brings together the KB Home employees along with many business partners to raise funds through the sale of a new home benefiting the Builders Care program of the Northeast Florida Builders Association.
The home in the KB Home Adams Lake community has been completed and is currently under contract. The proceeds from the sale of the home will be donated to Builders Care.
“Community is at the heart of what we do everyday,” said Todd Holder, senior vice president of Operations for KB Home Jacksonville. “We, at KB Home, are pleased to be involved in this worthy cause, and we thank our business partners for their commitment and support in helping us build the 2004 Home From the Heart.”
The home is one of KB Home’s most popular floor plans, featuring three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a two-car garage. This 1,691-square-foot home will include several design options such as a covered patio, full sod with zoned irrigation system, vaulted ceilings and more.
On Jacksonville’s Westside, Adams Lake offers quiet, suburban living. This site features a lakefront view of the nature preserve that surrounds the community. Nearby Cecil Commerce Center provides recreational amenities including an equestrian center, riding and hiking trails, a softball/baseball complex, an Olympic-size indoor pool, a playground, lakes and a soccer complex.
Builders Care is the non-profit outreach program of the Northeast Florida Builders Association that targets elderly, disabled and low-income homeowners who need home repairs to maintain the safe and healthy occupancy of their residences. The Northeast Florida Builders Association provides education, research, legislative representation, media relations, promotions and programs for its 1,500-plus builder and associate members. The Association is celebrating 60 years of service to members and to the community through various charitable efforts.
