The Master Builders Care Foundation and John Day Homes won the Gold Nugget for Community Spirit award at the recent Pacific Coast Builders Conference in San Francisco. The two groups partnered with Compassion House, an Issaquah nonprofit provider of housing for homeless families, to build the Julia L. Pritt House. John Day, his staff and more than 40 trades from the homebuilding industry contributed more than $244,000 to build the duplex near downtown Issaquah, which houses two families. Long-time Issaquah resident and philanthropist Julia Pritt donated the land. The Care Foundation is a philanthropic arm of the Master Builders Association of King and Snohomish Counties, based in Bellevue.
