Become a Sponsor

Help us change the narrative + build the future.

Legacy Builders is more than a classroom presentation. It’s a hands-on, high-impact program that introduces students to the real careers available in construction—from skilled trades to law, project management, and beyond. But we can’t do it alone.

Your sponsorship ensures that students have access to the resources, materials, and experiences that make Legacy Builders memorable and meaningful. With your support, we can:

  • Provide engaging print materials and classroom resources

  • Offer fun and functional swag like hats, hoodies, and water bottles

  • Reward student participation with prizes

  • Support administration and volunteer appreciation

  • Expand the program into more schools within our communities.

Help us show students that construction is safe, innovative, and full of opportunity. Sponsor today and help build the future of our industry.
