Milwaukee, WI – ACTS Housing is preparing to provide one special family with the chance to purchase a 4-bedroom home in Washington Park on Friday, June 6 at 4:30 p.m. This home sale event is sponsored by Johnson Bank.

“Johnson Bank is proud to be a sponsor of this home sale event,” said Lee Turner, Vice President-Mortgage Field Manager at Johnson Bank. “We are committed to working with great partners like ACTS Housing to help turn more houses into homes for people in Milwaukee. Working together, we can have a role in helping to put an end to the foreclosure crisis in our community.”
