The construction industry builds the foundation for our state's current and future prosperity. It generates economic growth, improves quality of life in our communities and provides fulfilling careers for thousands of workers. With $6B in new DFW commercial real estate investment alone in 2015, it's vital to the future growth of our communities across the state.
Over the next two years, Texas will need to fill 810,000 construction-related jobs to meet the projected demand. The TEXO Foundation aims to cultivate relationships with students, educators and community members to help fill this increasing gap and provide sustainable career paths to those in need.
To educate, recruit, train and retain the next generation of construction professionals.
TEXO Foundation has a goal to raise $50,000 this fiscal year for our Scholarships, Grants, High School Outreach, and College Outreach programs.
TEXO Foundation is committed to the education, growth, and participation of all diverse people pursuing their career in the construction industry.
