April 25, 2025 (press release) –
In celebration of the 90th anniversary, LMC partnered with Habitat for Humanity of Delaware and Montgomery Counties for a day of service. On Thursday, April 24, ten LMC staff members volunteered at a residential building site in Pottstown, PA. to support the community.
From its humble beginnings with 35 lumberyards, LMC has grown into the nation's leading forest products and building materials buying group, with over 430 members and 1,800 locations across all 50 states. In 2025, LMC celebrates 90 years of strength through initiatives that honor its history, recognize members, and gives back.
A key element in fulfilling LMC’s goal of giving back was by partnering with Habitat MontDelco for a build day, where LMC staff members volunteered to support the construction of safe, affordable housing. Through this effort, LMC has been able to pay tribute to our heritage while holding true to our values of Building Business Together.
Sean Tighe, Senior Vice President of Purchasing remarked, “Spending part of the day volunteering with Habitat for Humanity affords our team a chance to step away from their desks and make a real, tangible impact. It’s a meaningful break that fuels personal growth, builds empathy, and reminds us all of the power we have to help others.”
At the construction site, LMC volunteers got to work on a variety of tasks. Their efforts supported the construction of a safe, affordable home for a local family, reinforcing Habitat MontDelco’s mission of bringing people together to build homes, communities, and hope.
Grace Gothard, Volunteer Outreach Coordinator at Habitat MontDelco noted, “The team from LMC was so productive today as they helped with removing old siding from the exterior of the building, demolishing old walls, and replacing old joists. The work they completed is essential to building a safe, high-quality home to be enjoyed for generations to come.”
Jack Regan, LMC’s OSB Department Manager who participated on the build said, “Getting out to the build site with my fellow coworkers was a fantastic opportunity to develop relationships and gain relevant knowledge while simultaneously impacting our local community in a positive way.”
While this was the first partnership between LMC and Habitat MontDelco, LMC previously participated in a women’s build with the Philadelphia Chapter of the organization in 2024. LMC’s family-owned dealers and Habitat’s focus on affordable housing share a common commitment to strengthening communities. LMC is proud to support this important cause.
