Outstanding Community Partner Award, Jeff Langkamp
We are proud to present the Outstanding Community Partner Award to Jeff, a dedicated individual whose leadership at a local financial institution has been instrumental in launching a Bank On Greater Milwaukee pilot project. In collaboration with the Department of Corrections and the Community Reintegration Center, he has helped justice‑impacted individuals access vital financial services. Their years of sustained advocacy and unwavering commitment have paved the way for future Bank On initiatives, and we are grateful for their dedication to creating financial opportunities for all.
Extraordinary Volunteer Award, Beth Van Gorp
We are thrilled to present the Extraordinary Volunteer Award to Beth, a generous community advocate who has selflessly donated time and expertise to support our programs. As co‑chair of the local Education & Advocacy Workgroup since 2022, Beth person has played a vital role in shaping advocacy structures, boosting community engagement, and advancing the City’s investments in down‑payment assistance. Her leadership has been instrumental in crafting strategies that promote enduring and inclusive homeownership opportunities.
We hope to see you there!
