How It Started
Our love for giving back started in 2005 when Big Canyon Homes, Inc teamed up with Make a Wish Foundation to make a young cowboys dreams come true. Brandon, a five year old with leukemia, wished of being a cowboy. Big Canyon Homes, Inc was able to dedicate the basement of a showcase home to Brandon. It was completely custom to Brandon’s liking. All things cowboy—saddles, ropes, boots and a completely custom hand painted mural. We are proud to say Brandon beat leukemia and is currently enrolled in a specialty school. Big Canyon Homes, Inc continues to maintain a relationship with Brandon.
Since then, Big Canyon Homes, Inc has continued to support those in need: schools, families, sub for Santa, employees, friends, student programs, county fair events, etc. The year 2020 brought a lot of challenges due to the pandemic. We were very blessed to continue working, we know a lot of people were not as fortunate. During that time we felt that we needed to give back in a bigger way, Big Canyon Homes Foundation was then created.
Foundation Success
As of 2024 we have been able to raise over $2.2 million. Wow! What an amazing accomplishment that we know wouldn’t have been possible without all of you. With that money we were able to give back in big ways. We have given out over 55 scholarships to students who attend Summit County High Schools. We have also donated to Primary Children’s Hospital as well as sponsored their Give-athon Event. We are very fortunate to have such an amazing children’s hospital so close to home.
Finally, we were able to give back to Veterans, which is something that is very near and dear to our hearts, without the sacrifice and dedication of our military family, none of this would be possible. Every dollar raised by the Big Canyon Homes Foundation is given back. Big Canyon Homes, Inc donates all administrative fees to run the foundation. Our 2025 Foundation will be held on November 1st.
