I Build America celebrates National Construction Appreciation Week annually during the third week in September. I Build America's purpose is to instill pride within the construction industry and inspire the next generation of young people by telling the story of American construction.
This week recognizes the dedicated, hard-working men and women who play a part in the development of our infrastructure. This five-day tribute celebrates the sacrifice and tireless effort put forth to keep our country going strong. It's time for everyone to know what we have known all along: construction is a valuable and rewarding career that deserves to be acknowledged.
