Along with framing a home in just a matter of days, this year’s BCMC Build project helped deliver a huge surprise. Partnering with the NAHB Building Systems Councils (BSC) and Operation Finally Home, an organization that builds homes for wounded U.S. veterans, BCMC Build welcomed the future homeowner, SPC Cody Nusbaum, when he arrived on the jobsite and was told it would be his new home.

“It’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me, to be honest,” said Nusbaum. Acknowledging the whirlwind of receiving such exciting news, he thanked the entire industry for its generosity and for helping make his dream come true. Welcome home, Cody!

A big thank you to the many industry manufacturers and suppliers who generously donated to the BCMC Build project, and to the dedicated individuals who volunteered their time and skills to building Cody’s house.
