In honor of denim day, our business development and interior design leaders also attended the Women's Empower Luncheon at the Women's Center yesterday alongside colleagues from Henricksen and VJS Construction Services.
The event is the largest fundraising event of the year for the Women's Center and proceeds benefit survivors by helping them find safety, shelter, and support. We were happy as always to attend and believe strongly in the work the Center does to support people in desperate need of help.

Our project made the cover of the Illinois Library Association's Reporter magazine this month. The Helen Plum Memorial Library opened last year, and we couldn't be prouder of how it turned out. It's not our only library in the issue either. The Fremont Public Library and Homer Township Public Library also make appearances under the new libraries of 2023 section. All three have made fantastic additions to their communities!

While this is event is for charity there are a few bragging rights to be won, including a People's Choice Award. Voting is still open. If you like our design, please vote for us at the link below!
