Lennar

At Lennar, giving back to the community is more than a gesture - it's a heartfelt commitment to creating lasting, positive change. Through the Focused Acts of Caring initiative, the Lennar Portland team partnered with Clark County Food Bank, the Home Building Foundation, and Santa’s Posse to make a meaningful difference in their community. With Home Building Foundation, Associates rolled up their sleeves to transform a homeless veterans' shelter, building a new deck, creating a walking path, staining and painting picnic tables, and bringing life to the outdoor space through thoughtful landscaping. Their efforts turned the area into a more welcoming and functional environment for those who have served our country. Supporting the Clark County Food Bank, the team helped provide over 2,000 meals to families in need through volunteer events held throughout the year, spreading nourishment and hope across the community. To close out the year, the Portland Division teamed up with Santa Posse to host a holiday toy and food drive, preparing and delivering gifts and meals to 1,500 families ensuring the season was filled with joy and generosity. These initiatives demonstrate the team’s dedication to supporting those in need and making a lasting impact in their community. Keep up the great work!

Thanksgiving is right around the corner!

Children attending the event received personalized stockings and holiday gifts from Santa, while also enjoying activities like laser tag, arcade games, and go-karting with Division Associates. The Division also made a generous donation to Kids Kottage, a group home for foster children, gifting the model home furniture from a recently closed-out Lennar community to the facility. Wonderful work, Reno! #LennarReno #FocusedActsofCaring #GivingBack

Meet this month's Lennar Legend – David Meyers! David joined Lennar in 2000, starting as a Sales Intern with U.S. Home before Lennar acquired the company. Originally from a family of farmers in South Florida, David always thought he’d follow in his family’s footsteps and run the farm after college, until his father encouraged him to explore other career opportunities. This led him to homebuilding, and for the last 25 years, he’s built his sales career with Lennar from his first internship to VP of Sales, to his current role as Division Manager. Throughout his career with Lennar, David has learned many valuable lessons and gained experiences that have shaped who he is today. From navigating challenging market conditions in 2008 to experiences like selling homes in a community with no models, his career has been full of moments that taught him how to adapt, be resilient, and think outside the box. He’s continuously inspired by Lennar’s commitment to growth and innovation. David values the opportunities he’s had to embrace cutting-edge technology and implement new processes that are transforming the industry. In David’s perspective, if you enjoy what you do, you hardly work a day in your life. He credits his long tenure with Lennar to the people, Company culture, and values that have made every day of the past 25 years enjoyable. To him, the loyalty Lennar Associates show each other, personally and professionally, defines who Lennar is as a company. He takes great pride in Lennar’s commitment to doing the right thing for the right reason that’s built into every aspect of our Company. David's advice to new Associates is to challenge themselves, be leaders, and voice their ideas. He also recommends all Associates take advantage of the numerous opportunities for growth and development Lennar provides, and never be afraid to embrace new career opportunities across departments. Here's to 25 incredible years, David! You're a true Lennar Legend, and we're excited to see how your leadership continues to make an impact. #LennarLegends #ILoveLennar #LoveWhereYouWork #LennarCulture
