First Bank and Trust of Indiantown has made a $61,000 contribution to Habitat for Humanity of Martin County to build new homes in the Booker Park subdivision in Indiantown.

"We're proud to partner with Habitat for Humanity to help provide housing residents in this community can afford and take pride in."
