FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
April 25, 2012, Madison, WI - The employees of First
Business Bank and Neider & Boucher, S.C. are participating
in a Habitat Humanity Building Project in the parking lot
of the First Business Bank Center in UW Research Park. The
project runs from 8am to 1:30pm at 401 Charmany Drive,
Madison, WI on Thursday, April 26, 2012.
The project is a "Panel Build," an event designed
to engage the community in the Habitat mission by
presenting an opportunity to help a deserving family build
their home. The purpose of a Panel Build is to construct
all of the
wall panels necessary to build an entire home. All
volunteers can be expected to have a hammer in hand helping
to assemble wall panels for this home.
The family selected to become owners the new home are the
Morris Family. They have three children and are originally
from Ghana, West Africa. They moved to the United States to
provide a better life and education for their children. The
Morris family will be on site for the build and will speak
to the volunteers at a noon luncheon.
Habitat for Humanity of Dane County is a local nonprofit,
that through volunteer labor and donations of money and
materials, builds and rehabilitates simple, decent houses
with the help of the partner families. Habitat homes are
sold to partner families at no profit, financed with
affordable, no-interest loans. The homeowners' monthly
mortgage payments are used to build more Habitat
houses.
"First Business is excited to have the opportunity to
participate in this important event with Neider &
Boucher," says Mark Meloy, President & CEO of First
Business Bank. "Habitat for Humanity serves an
important need in the
community, and the people there have an inspiring drive to
help others. I think all business leaders should aspire to
bring this spirit into their organizations."
"This is a wonderful opportunity to have both Neider &
Boucher and First Business team up to help the Morris
family reach their dream of owning their own home,"
says George Kamperschroer, Managing Partner at Neider
Boucher and President of the Habitat for Humanity of Dane
County Board of Directors. "We feel strongly about
this worthwhile cause and how it helps local families be in
a better place."
