Before joining Fremont High School 's Career & Technical Education program, Levi had never framed a wall. Today, he's helped build an entire home, one that a local family now calls their own. "Starting this class I never even framed a wall and now there is a whole house that a family is gonna live in and they will grow and have a good time." Hands-on learning changed everything for him. What began as curiosity became confidence, skill, and direction. Through the support of The Builder Foundation and programs like these, Levi discovered a passion for the trades and a clear path forward. He's now working with Fremont Electric and even launched his own small handyman business. This is what your support makes possible: real opportunities, real futures, and real impact for students like Levi.
