2024 Spring ACG Utah Cares: Lend a Hand, Build a Future!

When you build your community you build your business…..and it just feels so rewarding to be able to give back! That sentiment is why ACG Utah organized our first ACG Cares day supporting Salt Lake Valley Habitat for Humanity. It was cool to spend the day with a number of ACG members and supporters over at the Field of Dreams site in Kearns. This has been a multi-year project for Habitat where they converted two delapodated baseball fields into 20 homes for families. As a group we had the opportunity to help finish off two homes in the project that Habitat will dedicate on June 11th. It was so great to be a part of this process and see outgoing CEO Ed Blake and spend time with incoming CEO Carin Crowe. Thank you to the entire Habitat team who was onsite with us yesterday, ensuring this under qualified team of volunteers got the job done and didn’t spend the whole time networking and deal making😂😂😂


A big thank you to all the volunteers who came out, especially Mont James who spent his day (6+ hours) on site. This will be a routine occurrence for ACG so if you’re a member of ACG be on the lookout for the next opportunity to volunteer!
