What is Industry Build?

Industry Build invites hundreds of participants from industry leaders to trades professionals, to break out of the office and get hands-on on a Habitat construction site.

This year (May 26–30, 2025), participants helped build 11 townhomes in Airdrie’s Bayview community, raising over $110,000 to support Habitat’s mission.

Whether you’ve never held a hammer—or you’re a seasoned builder—you’ll receive onsite training and mentorship from experienced Crew Leaders for a fun, safe, and impactful day.
