A Roof Over Our Heads: Thanks To Our Generous Donors

Support For Vital Roof Repairs

Last year, We Care Arts celebrated its 40th anniversary, and this year our 20th year in our beloved Berkeley Center Studio Campus. These milestones also brought with them some significant (read expensive!) facility needs including the total replacement of our roof! While the facility continues to be an ongoing project, it is with immense gratitude that we extend our heartfelt thanks to the organizations and individuals who have recently provided us with essential funding and support to replace our roof. 

Essential Roof Repairs: A Community Effort

The essential roof repairs for our facility were a pressing need, and we are elated to announce that thanks to the collective efforts of numerous donors and supporters, we have successfully secured the necessary funding. The total cost of these repairs amounted to just under $70,000, and we are deeply grateful for the contributions that made this possible.


Breakdown of Funding Sources:

 Mathile Family Foundation

 Centerville Spirit Chain

 Dayton Foundation

 Iddings Foundation

Jim and Deborah Deuser


Each of these contributions played a vital role in ensuring the safety and sustainability of our facility, enabling us to continue serving the community without interruption.


Special Thanks to Xpert Roofing

In addition to financial contributions, we received invaluable in-kind support from Xpert Roofing. Their expertise and generosity in providing the necessary materials and labor have been instrumental in the successful completion of our roof repairs. We are incredibly thankful for their partnership and commitment to our mission. Xpert Roofing’s support exemplifies the power of community collaboration and the impact that can be achieved when we work together.


Moving Forward with Gratitude

As we look to the future, we do so with a sense of renewed hope and determination. The faith and support shown by our donors and partners fuel our passion to continue providing essential services and programs. We are excited about the possibilities ahead and remain committed to making a difference in the lives of those we serve.
