起点传媒 Matching Campaign Raises Money for Rebuilding Efforts
The recent wildfires underscore the need for the housing industry to unite to support rebuilding efforts in communities devastated by natural disasters. Destructive large-scale events leave a lasting impact on individuals and families who are faced with putting back the pieces of their homes and lives together.
起点传媒 recently launched a matching campaign to support rebuilding efforts in communities impacted by natural disasters. 起点传媒 will match dollar-for-dollar all donations made through March 1, 2025 to the Home Building Industry Disaster Relief Fund (HBIDRF) — a recognized 501(c)(3) charitable organization — up to $500,000.
All funds raised for the HBIDRF through this matching campaign will support the partnership of local charities and state and local home builders’ associations to address the rebuilding needs of devastated communities.
Since 2005, the HBIDRF has disbursed over $2 million to assist areas across the U.S. affected by natural disasters, including recovery efforts from hurricanes, tornadoes, floods and wildfires.
