July 16, 2014 THE VILLADOM TIMES I • Page 27 ASB volunteers at Paterson Habitat for Humanity A group of Atlantic Stewardship Bank employees once again participated in the Paterson Habitat for Humanity Annual Corporate Challenge. This is the nineteenth con- secutive year the bank has sent a team of 15 volunteers to this event. The ASB associates were part of over 800 volunteers from 30 corporations taking part in this year’s Corporate Challenge. Participating companies send teams of employee volunteers to build homes and make corporate donations to Paterson Habitat for Humanity. This year’s challenge ran throughout the month of June. This was the 20 th consecutive year this event has been held. The Corporate Challenge is based on the simple concept of teams of employees working at the construction site on a specific day for four-hour shifts. During the daily lunch provided by Habitat, volunteers, incoming families, and Habitat staff share their stories.
