A shared dedication to building great futures has brought together the Southeast’s leading name in homebuilding and Boys & Girls Clubs of America for a new twist on an annual event. 2011 marks the company’s 40th year in homebuilding, John Wieland Homes and Neighborhoods committed to raise $101,000 for Boys & Girls Clubs of America. The donation benefits local Boys & Girls Clubs in each of the markets in which John Wieland is currently building including Atlanta; Charlotte and Raleigh, NC; Charleston, SC and Nashville, TN. The total donation is the sum of a $1000 gift from the company for each home sold during its annual 101 Home Event, a yearly spring drive to sell 101 new homes. 

“Obviously this year’s event holds special meaning for us by allowing us to celebrate our 40th year and our commitment to the community through our partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs,” says company founder and CEO John Wieland.
