Renew Missouri Homes Launches to Increase the State’s High-Performing Homes
Introducing Renew Missouri Homes
The Renew Missouri Homes program advances the high-performing homes industry within Missouri, both empowering industry professionals and giving homeowners the certifications they need to validate their home's increased value.
Renew Missouri, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources' Division of Energy, and Pearl Certification are excited to announce the official launch of the Renew Missouri Homes program.
Renew Missouri Homes, a public-private partnership between Renew Missouri, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources' Division of Energy, and Pearl Certification, will help ensure that energy-efficient, high-performing homes in Missouri are properly valued when they are sold.
The program makes a home's high-performing features — like renewables, insulation, efficient heating and cooling systems — visible and engaging to homebuyers through the state's Missouri Home Energy Certificate, supported by Pearl Certification. The result is that these homes will sell for higher prices — creating a powerful incentive for other Missouri homeowners to improve the performance of their homes by adding energy-efficient features and renewables.
Homes certified through the Renew Missouri Homes program can also be listed on the Green Building Registry, a national registry for high-performing homes, through a partnership with Earth Advantage.
"The Renew Missouri Homes program is a vital extension of the great work the DNR Division of Energy is doing throughout the state," said Andy Popp, manager of the Missouri State Energy Program. "This program provides an easy-to-use framework for Missourians to create more comfortable, efficient, and sustainable homes that benefit the entire state."
With the launch of Renew Missouri Homes, powered by Pearl, on Oct. 1, 2022, Missouri homeowners now have access to a free homeowner portal called Green Door to build custom plans that organize and track home energy upgrades, schedule regular home maintenance reminders, and connect with vetted contractors to perform energy upgrades. Qualified builders, home improvement contractors, appraisers, and real estate agents who earn admittance into the network gain access to Renew Missouri Homes' dedicated business development team, committed to helping them grow their businesses through supporting the high-performing home market. Industry professionals can apply to join the Renew Missouri Homes Network on the program's website. https://renewmohomes.com/
James Owners, Renew Missouri's executive director, said, "Renew Missouri knows that energy efficiency is the cornerstone of realizing a clean energy future. The Renew Missouri Homes program will be a driving force in making Missouri homes more efficient, save homeowners on their utility bills, and drive energy-efficiency investments across the state. We are honored and proud to have our namesake represent the program as we firmly believe in bringing energy efficiency to all Missourians."
"Missouri is truly leading the country by launching the Renew Missouri Homes program," said Robin LeBaron, co-founder and president of Pearl Certification. "We applaud and are thrilled to support the commitment to transforming Missouri communities for generations."
"Through this groundbreaking program, homeowners will get the tools and resources they need to create homes that are more comfortable, healthy, and sustainable by connecting with our vetted network professionals, who understand how to build, improve, appraise, and sell high-performing homes," said Cynthia Adams, Pearl's co-founder and CEO.

NBA Legend & Former Villanova Assistant Coach Launch ‘Friends of Nova’ Name, Image, and...
PHILADELPHIA - October 11, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Former members of the Villanova Wildcats family and community leaders in the Philadelphia area have partnered with Blueprint Sports, the industry leader in full-service Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) collectives, to unveil Friends of Nova — the first NIL collective supporting men's basketball student-athletes at Villanova University. As one of the nation's premier basketball programs, the Villanova Wildcats have won the NCAA D-1 National Championships three times, most recently in 2016 and 2018.
Friends of Nova is spearheaded by Randy Foye and Ashley Howard, two legacy members and well-known figures of the Villanova men's basketball family. Both having deep ties to Villanova University's athletics program, Howard and Foye will serve as co-executive directors of the Friends of Nova collective. Howard previously served as the assistant coach for Villanova University's men's basketball team from 2013 to 2018 under then-Head Coach Jay Wright. Foye played on Villanova University's men's basketball team from 2002 to 2006, before being drafted in the first round of the 2006 NBA Draft and beginning his professional basketball career.
"Playing basketball at Villanova University was the honor of a lifetime and this opportunity to kick off Friends of Nova really means a lot to me," said Foye. "We are thrilled to give back and work hand in hand with supporters, fans, community members and alumni to build something meaningful and open doors to new possibilities for future generations of student-athletes."
Local and national businesses, as well as community supporters, have multiple options to engage with Villanova student-athletes. Friends of Nova builds partnerships between businesses, brands, and student-athletes for marketing opportunities, including online influencer campaigns, local appearances, youth sports coaching, speaking engagements, and more. Additionally, tax-deductible contributions can also be made through the BPS Foundation, a 501(c)(3) partner organization formed to educate, encourage, and assist student-athletes in their efforts to engage with the local community through charitable causes.
"Friends of Nova will allow us to help provide opportunities for student-athletes to not only capitalize on their name, image and likeness, but connect with their community and learn about financial literacy," said Howard. "I look forward to spearheading this initiative alongside Randy to help support our Wildcat family and help the Villanova community be a part of something bigger."
