This year’s honorees were Michael Reitmann, long-time building industry and community leader and Lee BIA Builders Care. An award for exemplary community service was presented to Lee BIA Builders Care, President Butch Ritter. Among 230 people, including many political leaders from around Southwest Florida and the State, attended the event. “Builders Care and the building industry provide a tremendous service to our community and bring people together to help others in need,” said Senator Benacquisto. “We are so excited to recognize their efforts.” Builders Care recently hit a milestone in completing over $2 million in construction services to date and completing more than 130 projects in Lee County for needy and deserving elderly and disabled homeowners in need. Builders Care is the nonprofit charitable arm of the Lee Building Industry Association (BIA). Its objective is to provide emergency repairs and construction services to elderly, disabled and economically disadvantaged people who are unable to obtain home repairs through traditional means. Builders Care enlists the volunteer services of Lee BIA members and leverages grants and donated materials to provide construction and remodeling services to qualified homeowners throughout Lee County. Builders Care is headquartered at the Lee BIA offices at 10501 Six Mile Cypress Pkwy., Suite 104 in Fort Myers. Donations can be made to the Builders Care general fund at BB&T Page Field branch at 4959 South Cleveland Ave. in Fort Myers. More information is available by calling 239-938-0056. End
