HABITAT FOR HUMANITY

Two teams of 20 staff members assisted with sheet rocking, floor installation and priming of Habitat for Humanity homes in Woodbury on May 3 and 4. This was a partnership with John Bergstrom (former St. Anthony Park resident) and the Entrepreneurs House. A great day was spent by all participants!


UNIVERSITY AVENUE CLEAN-UP

Ten staff and family members participated in the University Avenue Clean-up on Saturday, April 29th. Sponsored by the Midway Chamber, our team picked up trash from Hamline Avenue to Oxford.

• Look for spelling and grammar errors (often indicates a fake email or Web site)
• Beware of “pop-ups” asking for a password or PIN
• Never email personal or financial information
• Review your credit card and bank account statements immediately upon receipt
