“It feels good that I can do something to help. I can’t do a whole lot, but I have a few skills that I can use to help people. This is all I’ve ever done. I love this kind of work.”
Skills? Like building a road, for instance.
In Yancey County, North Carolina, our Branch employee-owners are rebuilding their hometowns, villages, and hollers, one mile at a time.
Branch Foreman Ben Bailey is putting his skills to use rebuilding the roads in Green Mountain, North Carolina.
These mountains hold our homes, heritage, and history. For Ben, this is personal. This is more than just a project. It`s his home.
We’re not leaving. ...
