Wespac Vice President Tyler Mark is named the new President of Flagstaff-based Habitat for Humanity of Northern Arizona.
FLAGSTAFF, AZ. (Dec. 23, 2025) — Wespac Charities is proud to announce a charitable donation of $100,000 to Habitat for Humanity of Northern Arizona, reinforcing its long-standing commitment to strengthening the communities where it builds.
The announcement coincides with the appointment of Tyler Mark, Vice President at Wespac Construction, Inc., as the newly named President of Habitat for Humanity of Northern Arizona.
Mark has been actively involved with Habitat for Humanity of Northern Arizona since 2011, serving in multiple leadership roles during a period of growing housing challenges across the region. His connection to the organization is deeply personal.
“I didn’t grow up with a lot of financial stability,” said Mark. “My family moved more than two dozen times so we could stay in good school districts, and my mom worked incredibly hard to create a safe, stable home. Helping provide that same foundation for other families has always been important to me.”
Over the past 14 years, Mark has witnessed firsthand the increasing affordability crisis in Flagstaff, a community that has long faced housing shortages due to high costs, limited land, and complex development conditions. In response, Habitat for Humanity of Northern Arizona evolved its traditional housing model into innovative Starter Home projects, designed to create attainable housing while building long-term equity for families.
“As a board, we kept asking ourselves, ‘What else can we do?’” Mark explained. “Things weren’t improving, so we had to rethink the model. What came out of that effort is now gaining national attention.”
As President, Mark’s immediate priorities include completing Habitat’s 40-home Timber Sky development, made possible in part through recent major donations, including Wespac Charities’ contribution. The organization is also actively pursuing new land opportunities to maintain momentum and expand its impact.
“Our model is now being studied by Habitat affiliates across the country,” Mark said. “It’s incredible to see something that started in a small mountain town become a nationwide example of what’s possible.”
Wespac Charities’ donation will directly support the construction of additional homes, creating long-term benefits that extend far beyond a single family.
“One home doesn’t just impact one household,” said Mark. “Based on our equity-generating model, that same home can positively affect five to ten families over the next 50 years. That’s a massive, lasting impact.”
Through Habitat’s program, families pay an affordable monthly amount, a significant portion of which is placed into an equity account and returned upon move-out, often providing $30,000 to $100,000 toward a future down payment.
“This partnership speaks directly to Wespac’s values,” Mark added. “We’re helping families build equity, stability, and opportunity.”
Mark’s professional background in construction and development naturally aligns with his leadership at Habitat. “They really do go together like peas and carrots,” he said. “We understand the building process, costs, and schedules, and that experience helps us guide Habitat strategically and responsibly.”
For Mark, the most rewarding moments remain the simplest. “Watching a family receive the keys to a stable home. It gets me every time,” he said. “That ribbon cutting never stops being emotional.”
