When Jamie Baessler talks about building, he’s not just talking about homes. He’s talking about futures, communities, and legacies that span generations.
As a fourth-generation Coloradoan and second-generation builder, Jamie understands what it means to inherit something meaningful—. His parents, Ted and Sheila, founded Baessler Homes in the late 1960s. Today, Jamie and his wife, Sarah, lead the company as a people-development, employee-owned business with a clear mission: Through love and service to all, we will steward our resources to maximize our impact for God’s Kingdom in a culture that encourages growth of each team member’s God-given talents.
That mission shapes everything they do. Three years ago, they transitioned Baessler Homes to an employee-owned model, expanding ownership from two to 50 shared owners—creating pathways to generational wealth and stability for their entire team.
It’s this commitment to building opportunity, not just structures, that drew Baessler Homes to Project Self-Sufficiency.
“My parents created a business, an organization, a community reputation for a product and service that had a tremendous impact on my family and me, but also on others around us,” Jamie reflects. “It’s more difficult to create something or start something from scratch.”
That insight is exactly why Baessler Homes supports Project Self-Sufficiency’s service to single-parent families. They recognize that building skills, confidence, and self-sufficiency creates a multigenerational ripple effect—helping parents thrive inside and outside the classroom while building stronger futures for their children.
This year, Baessler Homes’ support has directly impacted 143 single-parent families and 276 children throughout Larimer and Weld counties.
When you think of roots running deep in Northern Colorado, Baessler Homes embodies what that means: a commitment to building not just homes but thriving communities and lasting legacies—one family at a time.
