“Build-A-Wall” Capital Funding Campaign
“Building for our Kids & Community…Brick By Brick”
The Purpose
The “Build-A-Wall” Campaign is a Capital Improvement Project to provide the resources needed to renovate additional space for programs that target the community’s youth, senior citizens, and under-served families.
The Project
The upcoming renovations and new construction project includes: more class rooms, computer & technology labs, and a state-of-the-art commercial kitchen for the preparation of meals and nutrition classes. Youth and senior citizens alike will be able to experience and participate in exercise classes, nutritional classes, after school and summer programs to ensure under-served youth can receive exposure and instruction in Academics, the Arts and Athletics.
Here are some ideas for buying tiles:
- Buy individual or family tiles
- Honor the memory of a loved one
- Promote or support a business
Engraved bricks will contain your special message of 3 lines of text (20 spaces per line without a logo or 15 spaces with a logo for $6 extra).
The Goal
The goal is to sell 1,250 bricks at $100 per brick to yield a total of $125,000. We are requesting donors to contribute the $100 each for one or more bricks to be placed on our donor recognition walkway. All donations are tax-deductible, and donors will receive proof of their contribution. Businesses, foundations, and corporations are welcomed to participate.
