Habitat for Humanity of Central Iowa is proud to announce we are a finalist for the Second Annual Gerry Rauenhorst Building Community Award. The award winner will receive a $63,000 grant from the Opus Foundation. I am writing to ask local residents to help us increase our community impact by voting online today. You can help us win the award by voting for Habitat at https://www.opus-group.com/BuildingCommunityAward.

This legacy grant is in honor of Gerry Rauenhorst, philanthropist and founder of the Opus Group. The award recognizes Gerry’s legacy of giving and commemorates the rich history and tradition that dates back to 1953. One nonprofit will be awarded $63,000, recognizing the 63-year tradition.

We were nominated by an Opus associate and selected as one of eight national finalists that best represents Gerry’s commitment to entrepreneurialism and lasting impact.

Voting is only open until April 15th. To show your support for our life-changing mission and in support of affordable housing, please vote and spread the word to help us continue to build community. Habitat for Humanity of Central Iowa is celebrating 20 years of helping families in need. We have helped over 50 families (over 200 family members). We look forward to serving many more families.
