Florida BMO Employees Help Local Non Profits

Florida BMO Employees Help Local Non Profits

SARASOTA and BRADENTON, FL (June 5, 2012) - Florida employees of M&I and Harris Private Bank, both a part of BMO Financial Group, are setting out to make a difference. In June, approximately 80 volunteers will be taking time away from their desk to help out their local communities.

Manatee County Habitat for Humanity will benefit from the manual labor of bank employees in the construction of a house in Bradenton. In Sarasota, Community Haven for Children and Adults With Disabilities is anxious for their main meeting building to receive a fresh coat of paint thanks to M&I.

These activities are part of BMO Volunteer Day in which more than 6,500 BMO Financial Group employees across North America will be participating in over 400 projects to improve their communities. BMO Volunteer Day is an initiative that encourages employees to recognize the needs of their local community, establish a volunteer project and mobilize teams to fill that need. This is the first North American-wide BMO Volunteer Day, which initially started with efforts at both M&I in 2001 and Harris and BMO Capital Markets in 2007.

"Helping others and giving back to our communities is something our employees are encouraged to do every day," said Dave Maraman, M&I Florida President. "It's great to see the impact we make when we work together during this one special day each year."
