Anheuser-Busch was one of the first local businesses to become a sponsor of our ‘Habitat Corner’ project when they made a $40,000 donation to the project in 2012.  In March 2013, they notified us that they would be making an additional donation of $35,000 to help us complete the project.  Kevin Finger, General Manager of A-B’s Fairfield plant, presented the check to Executive Director, Diane Agnone at the work site, during the first workday of the newly formed Women’s Crew of volunteers at Solano-Napa Habitat.
