Pacific Lifestyle Homes, a homebuilder based in Vancouver, Washington, recently completed a new Community Giving House to benefit four local children’s charities.

The Community Giving House program is the brainchild of Kevin and Nikki Wann, who opened Pacific Lifestyles Homes in 1996. The couple has been active in children’s charities for more than a decade, but sought to take on some atypical fundraising. The Wanns last year decided to start something tied to its homebuilding.

By working with its vendors and trade partners, Pacific Lifestyle Homes started the Community Giving House program with the goal of using proceeds from houses built through the program to benefit local children’s charities.

The latest Community Giving House, the fourth built through the program, recently sold for $615,900. Since program inception, more than $100,000 has been donated to groups that include the Children’s Justice Center in Clark County, Washington; Innovative Services NW in Vancouver, Washington; and Transitional Youth in Beaverton.
