Shepherding Success
ShareBuilt is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation established in 2022 by a dedicated group of AEC industry professionals. Feeling called to serve our communities and to leverage our collective industry experience, we created ShareBuilt to directly connect nonprofits in need of new and renovated facilities with professional AEC organizations seeking to meet such needs.
As we grow, we will continue to work with partners across all industries accomplishing projects for churches, schools, and community organizations. We are excited to be able to touch the lives of so many people and look forward to efficiently and effectively fulfilling project dreams by aligning needs with willing and able industry resources.
Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life. 1 Tim 6: 17-19
…. From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked. Luke 12:48
