The Paul Gregory Foundation
The Paul Gregory Foundation was created many years ago to serve as the philanthropic arm of the Wilmington-Cape Fear Home Builders Association to help advance our industry by exposing young adults to the construction industry. The Foundation is named in honor of retired local builder Paul Gregory, who provided quality housing in Wilmington for more than 35 years and was the initial founder of the Association in 1965.
Contributions from members, and other organizations provide key financial help and program funding to students who are actively enrolled in construction-related programs around the Cape Fear region.
Scholarships that come through the Paul Gregory Foundation come from various sources, and typically cover tuition fees, textbooks, and sometimes even tools and equipment.
These scholarships are designed to alleviate the financial burden of education and training, making it more accessible for aspiring tradespeople. They provide a pathway to obtain the necessary skills and certifications required for success in these essential fields.
