Community Involvement
Supporting the Communities we build in
Each of our 1,630+ projects have made a mark on a neighborhood. Our focus goes beyond the buildings we create and centers around the communities we live and work in. Many of our leadership team members serve on community and organization boards, and we encourage all employees to get involved in their communities.
We are dedicated to making sure the mark we leave is a positive one. We promote economic growth by using local vendors and subcontractors when we can. We work hard to be good stewards of our communities, making them great places to live and work.
Ways we are Caring for Our Communities
Merry and Bright Holiday Drive
With the understanding that the challenges of 2020 could mean not everyone would be able to afford to buy gifts for their children during the holiday season, Shaw started a funding drive for Denver Housing Authority residents. Typically, DHA employees can provide gifts for six families through the HOPE program. Shaw wanted to help support their efforts, which led to the Merry and Bright Holiday Drive. The goal of the campaign was to provide funds for gifts for more than 100 children in the DHA communities. Shaw teamed with OZ Architecture and ended up raising more than $7,000.
HomewardBound
Shaw built Pathways Family Shelter with HomewardBound, the only year-round homeless shelter within a 240-mile radius of Grand Junction that accommodates families, children, single men and women, people with disabilities and military veterans. In addition to providing shelter for people in the region, Shaw teamed with HomewardBound to also provide a facility for vocational training, a day shelter and access to free items like blankets, clothing and toiletries. The Pathways Family Shelter’s completion nearly doubled the number of emergency shelter beds in Mesa County.

Core Values
Creating Buildings and Relationships that last.
At Shaw, we believe our vision – to be a world-class construction company – could not be possible without our clients and investors, the communities we build in, the vendors we work with and the construction industry. Thus, our core values are focused on those things.
