MIAMI, September 25, 2001 -- Lennar Corporation (NYSE: LEN) today announced that on behalf of its employees and their families it would commit $1 million to support the victims, their families, the rescue workers, and others impacted by recent terrorist attacks.

“We at Lennar are very proud to be part of this nationwide program by America’s homebuilders,” said Stuart Miller, President and CEO of Lennar Corporation. “Lennar has long been thankful that our daily business activity is building and financing homes for America’s families.

Bob Strudler, Vice-Chairman and COO, added, “Many of our 7,000 associates have asked how they could also participate in this contribution. I am happy to announce that in addition to our $1,000,000 corporate contribution, Lennar will match all associate contributions to this fund on a dollar for dollar basis. Our thoughts and prayers are with those affected. God Bless America.”

First of all, I don't like 'em--they place too many demands upon your time there. :rolleyes:

Second, I looked under financial services and didn't see your puppy face anywhere... :(

Ah, I see...

My dad is a supervisor for Verizon, and the company is matching donations from employees 3:1 in addition to the millions it gave on its own. One of my dad's techs is playing local bars and cafes--he takes his guitar and plays patriotic songs and passes the hat and donates everything he makes through the company--he gave a check for $1000 last week.

Good to see people doing their part to help. :)
