Mutual of Omaha Employees to Build Habitat for Humanity House in Omaha
This summer, hundreds of Mutual of Omaha employees will trade in their desks and computers for hammers and saws as the company sponsors the construction of a Habitat for Humanity house located at 3114 Decatur St. in Omaha.
Approximately 15 employees will kick-off the company-wide volunteer effort as they begin laying the framework for the house this Thursday, May 4, from 12:30 to 4 p.m.
This year's effort marks only the second time Mutual of Omaha has donated both the startup costs and the volunteers needed to build a Habitat for Humanity house. Last year, more than 600 employees dedicated nearly 2,000 hours to build a house for a local Omaha family.
"We are excited to once again partner with Habitat for Humanity and provide our employees with an opportunity to make a difference in the local community," Mutual of Omaha Chairman and CEO Dan Neary said. "Last year was such an overwhelming success and we look forward to using company resources, including both finances and time, to help those in need again this year."
In addition to the hundreds of Mutual of Omaha volunteers, a few Habitat homeowners and Americorps volunteers will also assist with the construction of the house.

Founded in 1909, Mutual of Omaha and its affiliate companies manage assets in excess of $18 billion and are ranked among the Fortune 500.
