By Steve Rosenbaum | March 19, 2009
Home Energy Solutions energy efficient windows by Home Craftsman took center stage at the YouthBuild AmeriCorps Green Homebuilding Service Day anniversary celebration. The windows, supplied by BMC West and Home Energy Solutions were specifically designed for the hot southern climate; the final destination of the charitable home.
First lady, Michelle Obama, addressed YouthBuild, a non-profit community development program that teaches low-income youth housing construction skills while they work toward their GED or high school diploma.
Students and graduates from around the country were on the National Mall in Washinton, D. C., to demonstrate the important role we can play in rebuilding our communities and our lives, greening America and protecting our planet, and supporting our President in his quest to make service opportunities available to all Americans, including low-income young adults.
The event celebrated YouthBuild’s 30th anniversary and featured more than 100 students from over 250 chapters across the country.
“Its your core principle that I am so impressed with, providing opportunities for amazing young people, said Mrs. Obama to rousing applause. “Giving folks a second and third and fourth, chance particularly to low-income youth, that we sometimes overlook.”
YouthBuild students demonstrated the advanced technology windows to the first lady, and explained why the top-rated windows were selected for this special home. Home Energy Solutions and BMC West advise YouthBuild about the latest technology products that make YouthBuild’s affordable green homes the most efficient.
