Southway Builders Honored with Baltimore Business Journal’s 2024 Corporate Philanthropy Award

Southway Builders Honored with Baltimore Business Journal’s 2024 Corporate Philanthropy Award

Since our founding in 1991, an integral part of our business has been giving back to the community and helping others achieve their maximum potential. 

 

President Willy Moore shares, “I love to build. I got lucky realizing what I was put on this earth to do. It would be a shallow existence for me if I couldn’t celebrate my success without helping others achieve their own successes.”

 

Southway Builders does this through supporting nonprofit organizations that advocate for education, assisting those experiencing homelessness, and building workforce skills. In 2018, the Southway Builders Charitable Trust was established to guide our charitable giving efforts. In 2023, the Charitable Trust supported 55 different organizations, including Roca Baltimore, Helping Up Mission, Humanim, and Health Care for the Homeless.  And, this year’s annual golf tournament raised funds to support Thread. All of these efforts and the individual efforts of our team members are an important part of our greater mission of transforming people, communities, and buildings. 

 

“I have an enormous amount of pride that our company has been able to be in a position to write checks for the good of the community,” said Willy Moore.

 

In addition to financial donations, our Culture Builders Committee coordinates volunteer opportunities for our employees, such as serving meals at soup kitchens or filling school backpacks with meals. Group volunteer opportunities also include supporting workforce development programs through organizations like Second Chance, Vehicles for Change, and The Loading Dock.  Southway team members also volunteer with and serve on multiple nonprofit boards.

 

“I wouldn’t be where I am today without the help of a lot of a lot of people,” says Willy Moore. It’s important for me to play a role in helping others. None of us can succeed without the help of others.”
