On Feb. 28, THOR Industries announced a multiyear commitment to support Lacasa, Inc., a nonprofit housing agency offering programs to help Indiana’s Elkhart County community members achieve financial stability.
The commitment, which includes significant financial support and employee volunteer projects over the next five years, supports Lacasa’s programs which are focused on historically under-served communities and designed to create opportunity for personal empowerment, family stability and neighborhood vitality. The announcement illustrates THOR’s steadfast support of the Elkhart community where they are headquartered and where nearly 10,000 team members live, work and play throughout the THOR family of companies, the company said.
“By teaming up with Lacasa, THOR Industries is showing how big businesses and community advocates can do great things together,” shared Jeremy Stutsman, Lacasa president and CEO. “It’s about working side by side to make a positive impact and proving that when we collaborate, we can build a better, fairer and stronger future for everyone.”
“We are grateful for our Elkhart community and honored to establish a long-term partnership with Lacasa,” said THOR President and CEO Bob Martin. “Supporting education and programs to empower families to build better lives and acquire safe, affordable housing is one small way to positively impact the community that is so important to the THOR family of companies.”
The announcement and check ceremony took place at THOR’s global headquarters in Elkhart on Feb. 28.
Lacasa is a community housing development organization serving Elkhart County since 1970. More information can be found at www.lacasainc.net.
