Mission & Focus Areas
ABC states that its mission is to advance the merit shop construction philosophy, which encourages open competition and a free-enterprise approach to awarding contracts based on merit, regardless of labor affiliation. Its filing describes work in public education on construction-industry issues, chapter development, and government affairs.
ABC’s Trimmer Construction Education Fund supports training initiatives and expansion of training facilities that promote construction careers. Its application materials require applicants to support merit shop construction training, provide an equal financial match from other sources, document workforce-development goals and success metrics, and account for activities and contributions. Applicants must be ABC chapters, chapter affiliates, or members in good standing, or otherwise meet the stated eligibility criteria.
The 2024 grants included support for construction-related organizations and ABC chapters. For example, the Construction Legal Rights Foundation describes its mission as protecting employers’, users’ and employees’ rights to participate in the free-enterprise system. The Central Florida chapter says it provides services and programs for its merit shop members, while ACE Mentor Program of America says it introduces high school students to construction professions through industry mentors.
Grantmaking
ABC reported 10 grants totaling $2,415,111 in 2024. Grants ranged from $6,000 to $949,550, with a median of $72,734. The two largest awards were $949,550 each to the Free Enterprise Alliance and the Construction Legal Rights Foundation, both for general support. Other grants included $150,000 to ABC’s Central Florida chapter, $120,000 to its Empire State chapter, $77,090 to ABC Greater Tennessee, and $25,000 to ACE Mentor Program of America.
The 2024 Trimmer Construction Education Fund application materials describe a process requiring an application, a matching contribution from other sources, defined goals and metrics, and detailed accounting of activities, financial contributions, and grant-funded purchases. The fund does not reimburse costs incurred before an application is received, and it does not fund applicant overhead, staff expenses, or travel. Multi-year requests may be considered case by case; additional activities beyond those authorized require advance approval. A committee reviews applications and determines grant recipients and amounts, subject to the national board approving the gross grant total.
