The Raffle supported two very fine Montana charities: Chase Hawks Memorial Association and Billings Catholic Schools. Chase Hawks is an organization assisting families in crisis. Funding is allocated for emergency surgery, travel, rehabilitation and families suffering the loss of a child. Its mission is to provide swift and caring assistance to Montanans. Billings Catholic Schools provide a fine Christian based education for over 1000 children annually. Students are accepted regardless of race, creed, religion, and financial status. Proceeds from this raffle will greatly increase the impact of these two worthy causes.

MDA Lock-Up
Jim Kisling spent time in Jail to help Jerry's Kids through the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Friends and colleagues "bailed him out," raising over $1,000.

The previous year, Dave Kisling, another one of KW's owners, was arrested by the MDA jailers! Dave called on all his business associates, friends and family to post his bail of $1,000. Believe it or not, they came through for him and within an hour's time he was released! The jailers hated to see him go but gladly accepted his $1,250 bail money for Jerry's kids. Since this time, we have bailed out many friends and business associates.

KKBR Community Campaign for Drug Abuse Prevention & KGHL Child Safety Campaign
KW Signature Homes participates in the KKBR Radio 97.1 FM Community Campaign for Drug Abuse Prevention and the KGHL Radio Child Safety Campaign. Through the contributions of KW and other local businesses, thousands of local listeners hear messages regarding drug abuse prevention and child safety. KW also supports high school after graduation parties planned by students, parents and school district personnel for alcohol and drug free celebrations.

Playhouse Parade
For several years, KW Signature Homes participated in the annual Playhouse Parade raffle and auction. The proceeds from the raffle and auction were donated to support several local community youth service organizations.

The Big Sky International Air Show is organized as a nonprofit, charitable corporation whose primary goal is to generate significant revenue for local charities. As a participating volunteer, in charge of Facilities, KW Signature Homes designated Family Services to receive a $1,000 donation in its name for children's Christmas toy purchases.

Fantasy of Lights
The Easter Seal/Goodwill "FANTASY OF LIGHTS" is a mile-long scenic drive-through of holiday light displays, set up at Zoo Montana, to the delight of the young in age and young at heart. It is a holiday celebration viewed in December each year. A giant, jolly, holiday dragon waves its tail welcoming you into a dazzling wonderland of a giant rocking horse, a puffing toy train, toy soldiers, leaping deer, the Nativity, Menorah and KW SIGNATURE HOMES' T-Rex dinosaur standing 10 feet tall!

KW Signature Homes, Inc. agrees that this fun-filled event is sure to grow and bring joy to our community for years to come. Proceeds benefit children and adults with disabilities who receive Northern Rocky Mountain Easter Seal/Goodwill Industries services. More than 98% of the proceeds remain in Montana making it possible to continually enhance the quality of life for people with disabilities in our community.

Habitat for Humanity
For several years, the Home Builders Association of Billings has chosen to donate a portion of the proceeds from the September Parade of Homes event to the local chapter of Habitat for Humanity of Montana, a non-profit, ecumenical Christian housing organization. Habitat for Humanity itself builds no houses, but seeks financial support and donations of labor and building materials to build and renovate decent affordable housing for sale to people in need at no profit and no interest. Nationwide, Habitat puts roofs over the heads of more than 3,000 families a year, who like all of us, have the American dream to be homeowners.

The Billings construction community always supports Habitat with many hardworking volunteers who labor alongside a family, bringing 500+ hours of sweat equity to build a Habitat home.

KW Signature Homes olunteers labor. But more importantly, supervision of Career Center high school students to instill in them the value of volunteerism and offer on-the-job training to home construction skills they are learning in school. The students feel pride of accomplishment when they see the Habitat House they helped build.

Other worthy causes supported by KW are Stars and Stripes Wrestling, Yellowstone County Sheriff's Reserves Rodeo, Relay for Life (Cancer Society), Billings Animal Shelter, Eagle Mount, YMCA Seahawks Swim Team, Big Sky Hospice, Dialysis Clinic.
