While the focus of Shed Builder Expo is to bring the shed-building industry together to do business, there’s another side to the trade show that organizers consider just as important: giving back.
This year, Shed Builder Expo is partnering with Stor-Mor Portable Buildings to support its Stor-Mor for St. Jude fundraiser.
Stor-Mor’s CEO Darren Warren was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma when he was 17. He spent three years in Memphis at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® before he was cured of his cancer.
Today, he is a husband, father, CEO, and country music artist. None of this would have been possible without the doctors and research at St. Jude.
During Stor-Mor’s 2023 fundraiser, the company helped raise $200,000 for St. Jude.
Attendees of the Shed Builder Expo will have the chance to visit the Stor-Mor for St. Jude Booth on the expo floor and donate to the 2024 fundraising goal of $250,000.
Show organizers are making a donation in the amount of $15,000 to kick off the campaign at Shed Builder Expo.
