REGROUP<br />
ReGroup Carolinas, a local non-profit co-founded by Jim Rhodes (<strong>Wayne</strong> <strong>Brothers</strong> Senior VP),<br />
aims to increase economic mobility and address the skills gap in construction trades. They believe<br />
construction is a noble and rewarding profession offering well-paying jobs to individuals with the<br />
right character, willingness to learn, and work ethic.<br />
They are helping to bridge the skills gap and create a ripple effect of economic mobility within the<br />
community. As families achieve financial stability, they can support their children’s education, invest<br />
in their homes, and contribute to the<br />
local economy, fostering growth and<br />
prosperity. ReGroup has provided<br />
over $100k in support to The ROC<br />
Charlotte as well as contributions to<br />
She Built This City, Pat’s Place, and<br />
The Charlotte Toolbank.<br />
