Tupper Community Builders connects young residents with skilled trades and career pathways, supports local project development, and works to ensure Tupper Lake remains a place people choose to call home.
Tupper Community Builders exists to invest in the people and potential of Tupper Lake on two fronts: connecting young residents with skilled trades and the career pathways needed to fill critical regional jobs — in fields ranging from construction and engineering to healthcare and beyond — and strengthening the community itself so that Tupper Lake continues to be a place people choose to stay, return to, and call home.
We believe that workforce opportunity and community vitality reinforce each other, and that building both is the surest path to lasting growth.
TCB is a nonprofit in formation, operating under fiscal sponsorship of the Adirondack Community Foundation, and led by a volunteer steering committee and contracted Executive Director.

Building the conditions that make Tupper Lake a place people choose to stay, return to, and call home.
Identifying, funding, and managing projects that strengthen the social and economic fabric of our community.
TCB's inaugural project puts our mission into action — transforming the Tupper Lake Central School District's existing Tech Room into a modern, fully equipped trades learning environment. Students will gain hands-on experience in construction and related fields, with direct connections to local contractors and real career pathways in the region.
The project will expand awareness of trades careers among students while engaging local contractors as mentors and partners.
