The LBA Children and Families Foundation




William Londos draws on more than 30 years’ experience in the construction industry as vice president of preconstruction at ACM Design and Build in Miami, Florida. Away from his responsibilities at ACM, William Londos balances his time between industry organizations, such as the Latin Builders Association, and various philanthropic groups, including the Humane Society.

The Latin Builders Association (LBA) manages a variety of philanthropic initiatives through the LBA Children and Families Foundation. The foundation was formally launched in 2007, though the LBA had been active throughout South Florida as a philanthropic organization for nearly three decades prior. Early charitable efforts included collaborations on La Liga Contra El Cancer and support for local charity events such as Miami’s Annual Bike Drive.

Today, the LBA Children and Families Foundation coordinates all LBA fundraising initiatives and charity events, which include the LBA Scholarship Fund, the LBA Back-to-School Backpack Drive, and the LBA Toy and Bike Drive. The organization regularly distributes grants to worthy community programs while utilizing public relations and promotional efforts to raise awareness for these organizations and their missions.
