Seventy business leaders and executives donated their time and financial support Thursday, April 2 at Habitat for Humanity of Orange County (Habitat OC’s) 7th annual “Leaders Build Day” in Cypress. CEOs, CFO’s, Presidents, and VPs from local firms traded in a day at the office for hammers and work boots at Habitat OC’s 15-home build site in Cypress.
The business leaders who participated are passionate about community outreach and serve as advocates for affordable and decent housing for all. Their time and support was a valuable contribution to Habitat OC’s mission and goals.
Spanning an array of business sectors from banking, technology, construction, and tourism, firms collectively participated in an active day of building five of the 15 affordable homes in Cypress, which will be sold to limited income families in Orange County. Leaders enjoyed working together and competed in a variety of games, including wood-cutting, saw, and hammer competitions.
This year was Habitat OC’s most successful “Leaders Build Day” with the most funds raised for affordable home ownership to help hardworking and deserving Orange County families. Along with the support from many local businesses, the presenting sponsors included Banc of California, First Bank, and Pacific Western Bank.
