Bank of the West presents a charitable donation of $1000 to Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Bighorns!

On Thursday July 29th, Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Bighorns (HFHEB)received a charitable contribution of $1,000 from the local Bank of the West branch.

Sheridan branch President, James “Hoot” Bohnsack, said the decision to allocate funds to Habitat for Humanity stemmed from the Bank’s directives to support those who are underprivileged in local communities.

“It’s tough to get by given the current economy,” Bohnsack said. “I think it is an important service that Habitat for Humanity offers to those who qualify in Sheridan.”

The generous donation will be used through “A Brush With Kindness,” a Habitat program that refurbishes about 12 houses a year for low-income homeowners.

“Habitat for Humanity is honored to be recognized by Bank of the West as a community partner providing every Sheridan citizen a safe place to live,” said Jessica Lindsley, HFH Director. “We look forward to partnering with them in the future.”
