Thank You To Our Masonry Alliance Program Members

Words: Jeff Buczkiewicz

When I think about where the MCAA is headed, I keep coming back to one word: partnership. The kind where you build something together that neither of you could have built alone.

That's what our Masonry Alliance Program supplier partners have given the industry. The ability to build a future that goes beyond what any of us imagined even a few years ago.

In 2025, the MCAA became part of the White House Pledge to America's Youth initiative, focused on investing in AI education. We're sitting at the table with Apple, Microsoft, Meta, and Google, shaping how artificial intelligence integrates into skilled trades education.

We've developed GEORGE AI and advanced technology tools that are making contractors more efficient than ever. We're democratizing access to decades of industry knowledge and putting it in the hands of everyone who needs it.

We opened our second headquarters in Florida, dedicated entirely to outreach and education, with plans for five regional offices across the country. We're building a national infrastructure to connect the next generation to this trade.

And in 2026, we're launching the MASONRY STRONG Network, transforming how we communicate with and serve this industry. We're meeting people where they are, with the content they need, in the format they want.

None of this happens without you.

Your investment in us made it possible for us to innovate. To take risks. To build tools and programs that didn't exist before. To think bigger than ever.

This is just the beginning.

The MCAA is entering a new era. The next decades will be defined by the decisions we make right now. The partnerships we build. The future we create together.

If you believe in this industry's future, we want you with us. Because what we're building isn't just changing how the MCAA operates. It's changing how the entire industry moves forward.

To our current and upcoming partners: thank you. Your trust means everything. Your support makes everything possible. Thank you.

Let's keep building.

Jeff Buczkiewicz
President and CEO
