Austin - David Weekley Homes

You are more prepared for an emergency when the plan starts before the forecast changes.

Preparedness is one of the simplest ways to help protect the people and spaces you care about most. Whether you experience hurricanes, flooding, heavy rain, ice storms or unexpected power outages, having a clear emergency plan in place can help your household respond quickly and confidently.

Start by reviewing evacuation routes, assigning responsibilities for each family member and securing important documents in a waterproof container. A well-stocked emergency kit should include nonperishable food, water, medications, flashlights, batteries and a first-aid kit. It’s also important to check expiration dates regularly so supplies stay ready when you need them most.

And don’t overlook your pets. Packing extra food, water, leashes, bedding and medications for them ensures every member of your household is accounted for during an emergency.

Take time this time to update your emergency plan and restock your kits so your home is ready for whatever the season may bring.

2,369 volunteer hours in one quarter shows you what kind of home builder you are getting to know.

When you are choosing a new construction home, you are also choosing the people behind it. At David Weekley Homes, our CARE program is one way our Team Members, Homeowners and Partners live out Our Purpose of Building Dreams, Enhancing Lives in the communities where we live and work.

In the first quarter of 2026, that meant packing backpacks of food for kids in Denver, preparing and serving lunch at the Ronald McDonald House inside Children's Minnesota Minneapolis Hospital, collecting toy drive items in Atlanta with local law enforcement partners, creating fleece tie blankets, sorting food donations, hosting donation drives, giving blood, cleaning beaches and more.

The numbers matter: 898 Team Members participated, 2,369 hours were volunteered, $18,147 was raised by Team Members and community partners, and $18,987 was given in grants to local organizations by Dovetail Impact Foundation.
