The Professional Women in Building (PWB) Council of the Master Builders Association of Pierce County has achieved a remarkable milestone—being named 2024’s Council of the Year (Medium Category) by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB). This incredible honor is even more impressive considering the council was only chartered in June 2024! The announcement was made on Monday, February 24, during the International Builders Show in Las Vegas.
