Join Belgard’s partnership with USO to honor soldiers

Words: David BenincasaAt Belgard, we understand there’s more to making one than simply the quality products we provide. We believe home’s truest meaning can be found in the people we share it with – especially in our loved ones who serve and the grateful nation they defend. To all those returning from service on our behalf, all of us at Belgard proudly say… “welcome home.”

We recently launched our national Welcome Home Campaign with a goal of donating $100,000 to the USO in the names of various homeowners, contractors, and dealers. Help us promote this effort, and we'll make a donation in your name.

Install a Belgard patio, driveway or walkway between now and Veteran’s Day and we’ll donate $100 in your name to the USO in support of America’s servicemen and women and their families.

Your support of the Belgard Welcome Home campaign will help the USO continue its mission of lifting the spirits and touching the lives of America’s troops and their families. For nearly 75 years, the USO has remained the only nonprofit organization committed to supporting the men and women of the U.S. military and their families from the moment they join, throughout their service and as they transition back into their communities. We hope you’ll join Belgard in honoring the sacrifices made daily by America’s military personnel and their loved ones.

Building More: Slow, Fast, or Consistent. What is Tempo?
July 2025

It was a drizzly midweek day when I rolled up to the project we were working on just outside of town. The foreman paced the scaffolding, rain hood half-zipped, barking at two laborers who were sprinting bricks like they were late for a flight. Forty feet
