Traverse City, Mich. —April 30, 2024 — Cunningham-Limp, a community-focused construction management firm in Traverse City, is pleased to open nominations for its inaugural Community Builder Award, which will spotlight and honor leaders and businesses in Northwest Michigan who have built, improved, or creatively utilized a space that has significantly enhanced their community.

“Our team is deeply immersed in the communities we serve. We are on local boards, attend events and fundraisers, volunteer, and give to causes we feel are important,” Andy Cole, Cunningham-Limp’s Senior Vice President of Northwest Michigan, said. “As construction experts, building better communities is our passion, and we have noticed that it takes a special leader to spearhead developments that impact a community. Working alongside so many leaders on meaningful projects over the years gave us a front-row ticket to experience how special they are. We wanted to do something to recognize these incredible people and share their stories with the rest of the community.”

In addition to recognition, Cunningham-Limp will award the winner with a $2,500 gift to be allocated to a nonprofit of their choosing, including their own, if applicable.
