US LBM Foundation steps up for hurricane relief
The US LBM Foundation, a nonprofit organization founded by specialty building materials distributor US LBM, has committed $500,000 to assist recovery efforts for communities in the Southeast devastated by Hurricane Helene. This commitment includes $100,000 donated by the L.T. & Lina Gibson Foundation and a donation match for all contributions made to the US LBM Foundation up to $100,000. Donations can be made at uslbmfoundation.org/relief.
US LBM operates several building materials distributors in communities directly impacted by the hurricane in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee. These locations operate under several local brand names, including Jennings Builders Supply & Hardware, GBS Building Supply, Parker's Building Supply and Professional Builders Supply.
"We continue to keep everyone impacted by the storm in our thoughts," said US LBM Foundation Chairman and US LBM President and CEO L.T. Gibson. "Thanks to the supporters of the US LBM Foundation, we hope to provide more than $500,000 for both short-term and long-term assistance to our neighbors and communities as they recover from this historic storm."
