Blue Ridge Mountains Parade of Homes

We’re incredibly honored to have been recognized by the Union County College & Career Academy as a 2025–2026 Partner Level Sponsor.

On May 5th, we had the opportunity to attend their end-of-year banquet and Governing Board meeting, where local partners, educators, and students came together to celebrate a year of hard work, growth, and achievement. It was especially meaningful to see graduating seniors recognized as they prepare to enter the workforce and begin the next chapter of their careers.

Supporting students pursuing skilled trades and career education is at the heart of what we believe in through the Blue Ridge Mountains Parade of Homes and the Future of Our Trades Scholarship Foundation. We are proud to play a role in encouraging the next generation of builders, craftsmen, and industry professionals.

A sincere thank you to Union County High School for this recognition and for everything you do for your students and community. We are proud to stand alongside programs that are investing in the future of the trades.

We’re proud to share a milestone moment—surpassing $1 MILLION in scholarships awarded since 2019, reaching a total of $1,040,000.

Our 7th Annual Future of the Trades Scholarship Banquet is officially in the books—and what a night it was.

Last Friday, we had the honor of awarding scholarships to 21 incredible students, including 3 second-time recipients who continue to raise the bar for dedication and work ethic. These young men and women represent the future of our industry, and we couldn’t be more proud to support their journey.

This achievement is only possible because of the continued support from our generous sponsors, dedicated board members, and the entire Parade of Homes community who believe in investing in the next generation.

To our sponsors: thank you for your unwavering commitment to workforce development.
To our board members: your leadership and passion continue to drive this mission forward.
And to our students: your hard work inspires us all—this is just the beginning.

Here’s to building the future, one student at a time.
