Hedge Funds for Habitat-NYC hosted an event on Friday that brought 30 volunteers from the hedge fund industry together, many with no prior construction experience, to drywall rooms, saw wood, measure and cut metal studs and help frame walls.

They also raised $20,000 to help fund the construction costs. The hedgies worked side-by-side with some of the low-income families who will own these affordable condos.

"It's great to see so many people from the alternative investment industry coming together to give something back to the city that has been so good to us," said Stuart Feffer, Chair of Hedge Funds for Habitat-NYC and Co-CEO of lacrosse Global Fund Services. "The market has been tough this week, and it's terrific to get people away from their screens and behind some tools."
