Tennessee Home Builders Foundation
WHO WE ARE
Our mission is increasing public awareness and assisting young talented individuals to rewarding careers in residential construction through our 501c3 Foundation, the Tennessee Home Builders Foundation. The Foundation sees skills development through career and education as an agent of change for individuals, families, communities, and the nation.
Through the Foundation, we gift scholarships in honor of David Stauffer, a past president of the Home Builders Association of Tennessee. David Stauffer recognized the importance of education and building a strong workforce. In tribute to his lifelong commitment to the industry, the David Stauffer Scholarship was created in his memory. The scholarship is available to deserving Tennessee students pursuing a degree or certificate in construction or related fields. These students are the future leaders of the residential construction industry.
- David Stauffer Scholarship
The David Stauffer Scholarship is a “matching funds” achievement based scholarship program administered by the Tennessee Home Builders Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization. The scholarship is available to Tennessee students pursuing a degree or certificate in construction or related fields. Young adults graduating from career and technical programs, colleges, and universities are the future business owners, who in turn hire employees and pay taxes. And as the state’s population continues to grow and the demand for housing continues to rise, the need for construction professionals will increase.
PAST RECIPIENTS OF THE DAVID STAUFFER SCHOLARSHIP

Your tax-deductible contribution to the Tennessee Home Builders Foundation helps provide scholarships and fund education programs to encourage students to pursue careers in the residential construction industry. 100% of your donation will be directed toward promoting workforce development in Tennessee and facilitating the charitable activities of the Tennessee Home Builders Foundation. The Tennessee Home Builders Foundation is a non-profit corporation and qualifies for tax exemption and charitable contributions under Section 501c3 of the Internal Revenue Code.

A gift to the Foundation is not just a donation, it’s an investment in the goals and dreams of students in Tennessee. Each gift we receive will be put to good use, by working with local Home Builder Associations who identify deserving applicants eager to develop the skills and education needed to lead our industry in the years ahead.
