Transamerica Partners With Habitat For Humanity To Build Home

DENVER (CBS4)- Transamerica has partnered with Habitat for Humanity to build a home in Denver.

The project is under construction on Decatur Street and College Avenue in Southwest Denver.

For the first time, the company is sponsoring a home build.

Many of the company's 500 employees are volunteering at the site to complete the construction of a family home from the ground up.

"It's a bigger commitment because you need to fill all those build dates because there is a lot of building, obviously, that goes in a whole house and it's a bigger commitment financially from the company so we've really stepped up the partnership with Habitat," said Transamerica spokesman Marijn Smith.

Once complete, the home will go to a Denver family in need.
