Brattleboro Memorial Hospital recently received an
Annual Fund gift from a local business, Northeast
Home Loan. With the check came a note stating that
“in an effort to support our community, the
employees implemented a jeans day for the first Friday
of each month.” Brattleboro Memorial Hospital
was the January 2008 recipient.
As we thanked Northeast Home Loan and asked to learn
more about jeans day, Ed Sensor, President & CEO,
explained, “We do a charity Jeans Day the first
Friday of each month and all employees chip in $5.00
to wear jeans for the day. We rotate the choice of
charity so that each employee can choose his or her
favorite charity. We have 12 full time employees,
so it works out that each employee can allocate to
their favorite charity once a year. This is our 8th
year doing this program, so we have raised over $5,000
for local charities.”
We want to thank Ed and the employees of Northeast
Home Loan for their gift to BMH and to the many other
community charities they have supported over the past
eight years. We appreciate them sharing this fun way
for businesses and employees to support the essential
work of community not for profits.
