Build Student's Dreams, Build Louisiana

BuildStrong Dreams: Empowering NOLA’s Next Generation of Skilled Workers- we need YOUR help! 

At HBI’s BuildStrong Academy of Greater New Orleans, students aren’t just learning a trade—they’re building a life. A career. A future.

In Louisiana, rebuilding is a way of life. Our students are trained to lead that charge—with skills, purpose, and pride.

Our HBI BuildStrong Academy of GNO team is dedicated to training and preparing adults for rewarding careers in the skilled trades — at no cost to our students.

Your donation can contribute to an HBI student's journey through our program, obtain a good paying career, and positively impact their lives and our community. We cannot do this without you, our students cannot do this without you. 

Any amount you choose to contribute will be beneficial and will be used intentionally for our students. Thank you for your assistance!
