John Laing Homes Joins Efforts to Help the Homeless

HomeAid America has announced that John Laing Homes has become the non-profit organization’s ninth National Building Partner.

Partners provide national support for HomeAid and also help support regional shelter development programs for the temporarily homeless.

In 2001, the company led the construction of a $2.4 million project and donated $1.8 million in-kind, for HomeAid Orange County's Emmanuel House, which serves individuals living with HIV/AIDS who would otherwise be homeless.

This represents the largest HomeAid project by a building company and the largest in-kind donation made by one builder.

This year, John Laing Homes is partnering with HomeAid Los Angeles/Ventura on a housing shelter for the Commission on Human Concern.

With a long-time personal commitment to HomeAid, Larry Webb, CEO of John Laing Homes, has led the construction of five HomeAid shelter projects; two of them were through John Laing Homes and the others through past professional affiliations.

“We believe homes and neighborhoods are incredibly important to our families, to our society and to our future,” Webb said.

“The HomeAid vision is right in line with our guiding principles at John Laing Homes,” he said. “It is very fulfilling to be able to contribute to providing safe, dignified housing for temporarily homeless men, women and children.”

HomeAid’s other National Building Partners are: Beazer Homes, Countrywide Financial, David Weekly Homes, Kimball Hill Homes, Lennar Homes, Pardee Homes, Shea Homes and Standard Pacific Homes.
