A Weber County Forum Tip O' the Hat to Ogden City's Wadman Construction, and a few un-named other generous benefactors. From this morning's Cathy McKitrick story:
OGDEN - An army of volunteers stretched 500 yards of carpet and rolled on 60 gallons of paint Friday, updating nine apartments where homeless women and children live while they get their lives back on track.Wadman Construction founder Jay Wadman and his company have a long tradition of generously pitching in on worthy local projects and causes.
The nine-hour project was organized by Wadman Construction, an Ogden-based company, with the help of 10 other companies that donated everything from carpet to paint to light fixtures.
“It's simple,” said Wadman President Dave Hogan, who was on his knees taping and stretching carpet in one of the apartments at Your Community Connection. “Givers gain. When we give, we get back.”
His company's 95 employees were working alongside 20 subcontractors, such as painters and carpet-layers, who wanted to contribute.
It's great to see that the Wadman volunteer tradition remains alive.
