“We are tremendously grateful for the $20,000 in operating support that the Wilkinson Group has given to our program,” says Pete Palmer, Habitat’s Executive Director. “While Habitat focuses on building homes for families, there are many behind the scenes aspects beyond the costs of simply building the house. Educating families for home ownership, shepherding them through build process, and working with them over the 30 year life of their zero interest mortgage, are as crucial as the actual construction of their home.”
“To have such a supportive partnership with a local business as we do with Wilkinson Group provides significant encouragement to the work we are doing at Habitat. Obviously, the funding support certainly makes a difference. But also of importance, their support offers evidence of the resonance of Habitat for Humanity’s work in the Chattanooga community. It is one more outlet for our message of the need for our city to focus on developing affordable housing, especially in this down economy.”
“The Wilkinson Group is very pleased to be a contributor to Habitat for Humanity of Greater Chattanooga. Pete Palmer, Sumner McCallie and the rest of the Habitat team are doing great things in Chattanooga. We look forward to expanding our relationship with this fantastic organization in the future,” says Phil Deguire, Chief Executive Officer of The Wilkinson Companies.
