How Does Voting MASONRY STRONG Generate $119 Million For The Industry?

Words: Dan Kamys

Let's get straight to the point. Your vote in the Truist Foundation Inspire Awards is not a pat on the back. It is a business decision that will inject $119 million into the masonry industry. Help us show the country what MASONRY STRONG truly means.

That number is not an estimate. This is the real-world economic impact our ReCastED program will create, and your vote is the key that starts the engine.

Don't leave our money on the table. Register for the livestream now and vote during the show on November 12th at 6PM Eastern: https://truist.cventevents.com/event/75a06907-aead-4afe-8751-5f2ae86cd6f8/regProcessStep1. 

This Is A Transaction
This is not about charity. This is a transaction where your vote for us to win $75,000 triggers a massive return for our entire industry. Here’s the breakdown:

  1. $4 Million in New Salaries. The program creates over $4 million in new, stable salaries for every 100 veteran masons we transition into teaching roles. This is a direct investment in the financial security of our own people.

  2. $119 Million in Economic Impact. Those new instructors will then train thousands of students. If just half of those graduates secure a $50,000/year job, they will generate $119 million in new economic activity for every single program. This means more jobs, stronger companies, and a bigger bottom line for everyone in this trade.
The Bottom Line
The organization that shows up on November 12th with the most votes wins. It is that simple.

A vote for ReCastED is a vote for masonry to secure its own future, to train its own people, and to reap its own rewards. Leaving this to chance is unacceptable.

Step 1: Register. Now.
Step 2: Show up on Wednesday, November 12th at 6:00 PM ET.
Step 3: Cast the vote for The Masonry Foundation that unlocks $75,000 which translates into $119 million in value for our industry.
