Black Hills FCU Employees Support Local Non-Profits

Rapid City, S.D.  – Working to build a better future for families in need, Black Hills Federal Credit Union employees and family members recently participated in a build day with Black Hills Area Habitat for Humanity in Rapid City. Clad in bright yellow hardhats, volunteers spent the day putting up siding and drywall in a row of homes along the 900 block of North 7th Street. Once completed, Black Hills Area Habitat for Humanity will dedicate the homes to families in need who have teamed up with the organization.

“Black Hills Area Habitat for Humanity is an amazing organization working to provide simple, decent, affordable housing for those who need it most,” said Jackson Bolstad, chair of BHFCU’s Habitat for Humanity Community Action Team Project. “We’re proud to work alongside them to improve lives in our community.”

Employees and members also raised $1,250 for the Black Hills Humane Society and donated $200 to the Custer YMCA for their youth scholarship program. This July, BHFCU’s employees and members are participating in Community Action Team projects to benefit the Children’s Miracle Network, Working Against Violence, Inc., and United Blood Services.

With support from its members, BHFCU’s employee-led Community Action Team contributes and volunteers with more than 60 local, charitable organizations throughout the year.
