This September, the Miller Family Homes team took part in the Great Cycle Challenge in efforts to raise $1,000 for the Children’s Cancer Research Fund. Pediatric cancer kills 38 children in the United States weekly. More than 15,700 children are diagnosed yearly.
We surpassed our initial goal and raised $1605.56 and cycled 404.80 miles.
We hoped to raise awareness for these kids and help provide funds to develop treatments and a cure for cancer. Our three cyclists individually raised at least $500.00 and received their fundraising cycling jerseys. Without their perseverance, we couldn’t have done it without them. The rest of our team wore branded cyclings t-shirts to promote the fundraiser.
Thank you to everyone who donated to our cause, shared our posts and cycled with us. We couldn’t have done it without you!

The Great Cycle Challenge Team Statements:
Andrew, Estimator: Cycling is one of my favorite hobbies. I rode a lot in high school and even raced a bit with my dad. I learned about this challenge through a coworker. I’m passionate about helping kids with cancer. Thank you for your support this September.
Clint, President: I’m proud of what everyone accomplished! Thank you to everyone who donated.
Dinah, Controller: I started riding in the Great Cycle Challenge in 2016 only to find out later that year that I had breast cancer. Cancer is a scary word as an adult, but worse if you hear it when your doctor is talking about your child or grandchild. I’m happy to say, I’m cancer free. I’d like for us to erase this word from existence. Help us fight to find a cure!
Elise, Marketing Specialist: I’m riding in memory of my Aunt Darlene who passed away from breast cancer and her husband Chip who has lung and throat cancer. I recently learned another family member has Lymphoma. Cancer gets a big thumbs down from me. Thank you to all my family members who donated.

Miller Family Homes is a family-owned and -operated homebuilding company. Although our name changed recently, we’re still the same family and team here to provide superior-built homes and quality customer care. With more than 25 years of experience, we continue developing new homes in growing family-oriented communities throughout the Wichita, Kansas, metro area.
Our Story
President Clint Miller and his wife Brigitte had a dream of creating a successful home-building company more than 30 years ago. Clint grew up on a farm and enjoyed the work, so he pursued carpentry and construction. His brothers also shared those passions, so they gained experience and knowledge together building barns and doing trim carpentry. Clint later decided he wanted to learn more about running a business, so he earned his bachelor’s degree in International Business at Wichita State University.
Brigitte grew up in Bolivia but always hoped to move to Brazil for the people and culture. She finally moved to Brazil for high school and loved it, so she stayed to study Portuguese in college. Although she loved her home, the opportunity for learning and adventure inspired her to move to Wichita with a friend to obtain a master’s degree. Brigitte and Clint met while studying at Wichita State University.
After settling down, Clint and Brigitte moved to Chicago for new jobs and opportunities but soon returned to Kansas in pursuit of their true dreams. They officially opened the family business in 1993.
Clint’s passion and knowledge of building plus Brigitte’s amazing connection with people and her eye for design helped create the Miller Family Homes of today. Clint’s main priorities now include heading architectural projects and design on home plans while acquiring land to build communities. Brigitte’s legacy lives on through her sons Kevin and Derek.
Kevin is currently finishing his college degree in Economics. He previously managed the rental company and sold homes as a new home specialist.
Derek officially joined the Miller Family Homes team after attending college and developing his individual skills and experiences. Derek is responsible for land acquisition and development. He also assists with operations and purchasing. His goals for the future include helping with operations and becoming a stronger leader within the company.
The Millers are known for their culture and love for their family heritage which helps guide the company’s core values, culture and mission.

Building better homes means that we strive to build healthier homes. Our highly trained staff not only build with quality materials, but we also build our homes with 92% passive radon vents to filter out radon gas that comes into homes from the soil, provide kitchen exhaust hoods that ventilate fumes outside to help reduce the build-up of moisture and improve your indoor air quality, as well as provide a 10-year waterproofing warranty to protect your home and reduce any moisture intrusion. To top things off, we have a 1-year warranty program to back your purchase, to showcase our customer care and guarantee that we provide quality workmanship.
We offer a Healthy Home option that includes installing:
- A high-efficiency gas furnace in the HVAC system that runs cleaner and quieter to reduce your family’s risk of carbon monoxide poisoning and save you money on your energy bill.
- A fresh air ventilation system into your HVAC filtering system. Your home will be more comfortable and fresh.
- 4” pleated filter to trap more contaminants from entering your home compared to the conventional air filters.
We offer a Spread Your Roots referral program to promote growing trees in our communities. When a Miller Family Homes customer refers to a family or friend who signs a contract, that customer will receive a free planted tree!
With our home warranty program, high-efficiency systems and products and our referral program, we strive to constantly improve the quality of our homes to support the health and well-being of our homeowners.
