Thank you for your donations so far from September 1st to date. Collections to date total $5,655.75 towards these building repairs.

Unfortunately 2024 so far has been a very expensive year for our buildings. To date, we have spent around $20,000 more on our buildings than we had budgeted for this part of the year.

The expenses have been for safety reasons, not cosmetic repairs. Expenses have included replacing the rotten deck at South Island Centre ($3,600), replacing the stage floor - asbestos tiles were breaking ($4,100 less $2,000 paid by the Players), repairing the cottage bathroom ($5,000), putting windows in the Sunday School rooms in the church ($800), repairing the dishwasher ($1,800), new faucets for the kitchen and a new toilet for the preschool washroom ($800), repairing the heat pump at South Island ($4,900 less $2,000 paid by South Island Centre), and repainting the kitchen – the paint was flaking off ($3,200).

If you are able to make an additional donation in your Special Purpose Envelope (above your regular donations) to help cover these unexpected expenses, your donation would be greatly appreciated.
