Community Involvement
Smith Brothers Construction believes in building and supporting communities. In partnership with community associations, we are dedicated contributors of time, talent and resources. We are truly committed to making a positive difference where we live and work. Here is a partial list of some of the organizations we support:

San Diego Habitat for Humanity is a local nonprofit organization that builds affordable homes in partnership with low-income families. In the spring of 2006, Smith Brothers Construction participated as a major sponsor ring the annual Building Blitz and along with industry partners completed the construction of four new homes in a week.
