2009 NTENny Spotlight: David Krumlauf


David works for the Pierce Family Foundation, based in Chicago, and helps 7 NPOs with their tech needs. He's been a great support to NTEN and the community, and we voted him "Most Likey to Be Spotted by Your Mom Wearing an NTEN Hat" -- because, well, he's that much of an NTEN superstar and ambassador. See his NTEN meet-our-members profile to see him wearing that hat.

The Neighborhood Housing Services of Chicago (NHS)
recently presented its 2008 Vision Award to Denis Pierce, Pierce & Associates, and the Pierce Family Charitable Foundation. NHS is the largest housing counseling agency in Illinois with 9 branch offices in and around Chicago.

At its annual meeting, Bruce Gottschalk, the Executive Director for NHS , expressed his appreciation for the work that has been done in helping build a working relationship between the Loss Mitigation staff at Pierce & Associates and the NHS counseling staff. This has helped expedite and strengthen the entire loss mitigation process. Pierce & Associates was also honored for the substantial financial contribution it made to NHS to help cover operational expenses and promote loss mitigation efforts with delinquent home owners. In accepting the award, Denis Pierce stated, "law firms representing the mortgage lending community should be part of the solution to the expanding foreclosure crisis."

The Pierce Family Charitable Foundation provided funding to NHS to expand its resource development initiatives and media relations efforts.
