Dozens of American Family employee and agency owner volunteers joined in to complete the frame-up for a new Habitat for Humanity Dane County home at American Family’s national headquarters in Madison on Thursday, May 19.
They were joined by UW-Madison men’s head basketball coach Greg Gard, a regional brand ambassador for the company. Among the volunteers helping with the build were the home’s future owners, Tom and Reigna. The event was hosted by the American Family Insurance Dreams Foundation.
