Palm Bay builder named Transformational Founder for latest zoo project

(VIERA, FL) September 12, 2023 – The Avtec Homes family has been a supporter of the Brevard Zoo since, well, before there was a Brevard Zoo. As Zoo Founders, they made personal donations. As a company, Avtec Homes stepped up as the title sponsor when the 2020 pandemic threatened the very popular Boo at the Zoo. The company has sponsored the Zoo’s signature October event every year since — and has committed to do so through 2025. In an ongoing show of support, Avtec Homes recently pledged $100,000 over five years for the new Aquarium Project, earning the homebuilder the title of Transformational Founder. At this year’s Boo at the Zoo, special weekend activities begin on October 7 and continue through October 29. From 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, youngsters can participate in fun activities, pose for themed photo ops, listen to music, enjoy all of the Zoo animals — and snag some candy at the designated treat stations. Throughout the month, Mom and Dad can enter to win one of two monstrous VISA gift cards at www.AvtecHomes.com or participate in weekly drawings for additional zoo tickets. All Boo at the Zoo activities are included with general Zoo admission and are free for members. Costumes are encouraged. For more information, visit BrevardZoo.org.

Keith Winsten, Chief Executive Officer for the Brevard Zoo, appreciates the decades of support from Avtec Homes.

“The leadership at Avtec Homes have been supporting Brevard Zoo since our very beginning as original Zoo Founders. Their legacy continues through the present and into the future as Transformational Founders of the future Aquarium and Conservation Center in Port Canaveral. Since 2020, they have been our title sponsors for our most popular event, Boo at the Zoo and have committed to supporting us through the 2025 season. We appreciate everything Avtec Homes does for our community with housing and serving families; we are proud to call them our sponsors.”

For Sandi Forest of Avtec Homes, the ongoing support of the Brevard Zoo was a natural choice, given Avtec’s commitment to building well-designed attainable homes for Space Coast families.

“We were happy to be a part of the Brevard Zoo family,” said Forest. “We could not be more proud of the world class resource it has become. Sponsoring the family-friendly Boo at the Zoo and helping get the new Aquarium project completed is part of what we mean when we say Avtec Homes is building a better life.”
