Plantation, FL – February 24th, 2020 – James Donnelly, Founder & CEO of Castle Group, attended the 2020 CEO Build held by Habitat for Humanity of Broward at the historic 77-home Rick Case Habitat Community on Saturday, February 22, 2020. The goal of this event was to bring together the South Florida community’s local business leaders in order to support affordable housing for Broward County’s workforce.
During the event, the CEOs got the opportunity to roll up their sleeves and help build two Habitat Broward homes. This cause is a great value to the local community because when employees have an affordable place to live, they will have more disposable income to spend, which helps build local businesses and increase tax revenue. Raising awareness toward the importance of homeownership throughout the community enables local business leaders to give back in a way that makes a significant change in the lives of South Florida’s dedicated workforce.
“It was heartwarming to see 36 CEO’s out in the wind and rain on a Saturday morning to help a deserving family obtain the American Dream of homeownership. “ said James Donnelly, “I was honored to be part of this incredible project.” The event was covered by an array of media channels including the South Florida Business Journal and WSVN Channel 7.
The 2020 CEO Build Day has helped to pave the way for future Build Day events not only involving business leaders, but local employees as well. This event provides proof that through the support of local leaders, affordable homeownership can be an attainable goal for those who work hard.
