Cincinnati Habitat Nominated
for Torch Award

We are excited to announce that Cincinnati Habitat for Humanity has been named as a finalist for the 2009 Better Business Bureau's Torch Award for Marketplace Ethics.  This award gives recognition and honor to those organizations that fully commit to ethical practices in their business operations.  This is a very prestigious award and, while more than 30 non-profit applications were reviewed, only 5 were named as finalists. 

Cincinnati Habitat will be honored as a finalist at the Torch Awards event at Music Hall on the evening of October 22 at 6:00 p.m.  Two winners in the non-profit category will also be announced that evening. 

Cincinnati Habitat is grateful for this esteemed recognition and continues to strive to provide its families, volunteers, supporters and staff the best possible service and experience when giving of their time, talent and treasure to the important mission of Habitat both here and around the world.

For more information about the awards or to purchase tickets to the event, please visit the BBB website at http://cincinnati.bbb.org/2009torchawards.
