Our UK King's Daughters Medical Center project team in Ashland, Kentucky, joined trade contractor partners and medical center staff this summer for a day of fun and appreciation, all while helping others in our community. Our team was thrilled to host a Family Day event, welcoming loved ones to a carnival-like atmosphere that included food, games, snow cones, vendor booths, a dunk tank, and even a guest appearance by our robot dog, Morty! Proceeds from the dunk tank were matched by our trade contractor partners Dixon Electrical Systems & Contracting Inc. and Cornerstone Interiors, and with additional support by UK King's Daughters Medical Center we were able to donate $1,140 to Hope's Place, a children's advocacy center in our community. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of this event! #GivingWithPurpose

We are incredibly proud to have been this year's title sponsor for the She Builds Summer Program, hosted by Florida International University's Moss Department of Construction Management! This all-girls camp designed for high schoolers interested in construction has been an inspiration to future builders since it began in 2017. Our Florida team members led a full day of camp, featuring a presentation showcasing virtual design and construction and the latest technology our teams are using in the field. We also participated in a panel titled, “A Walk in Her Shoes – Women of Robins & Morton,” giving campers a chance to interact with our team and see what a potential career in construction would be like. Finally, we welcomed the campers to our UHealth at Doral jobsite for a tour of the medical center scheduled for completion later this year. Thank you to all of our team members who participated as we work to inspire the next generation of #WomenInConstruction!

Our Nashville team was humbled by the opportunity to help people facing hunger in our communities. Team members from our Nashville office and area project sites partnered with Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee, sorting nearly 20,000 pounds of food, enough to provide more than 16,000 meals. More than 350,000 individuals, including thousands of children, struggle with hunger across Middle and West Tennessee, according to the food bank. We will continue to give our time, energy, and support to help strengthen the communities where we live and work. #GivingWithPurpose
