Sylvia Center Roof Raising Update
Yesterday, GAF Materials Corporation approved the donation of their .80 TPO Membrane Roof Material.
Last week Adam from GAF, along with Chris Spicer and Bill Baldauf from Lakefront Roofing Supply came out to the Sylvia Center to see the roof, and as everyone who sees it, was amazed.
More than ten-thousand square feet, it is a big roof.
The TPO is in their top line of material, that will be the waterproofing for a Green Roof system.
In October many of you directly or indirectly helped with the tear-off at the Sylvia Center, and again many thanks.
In the late spring we look forward to the covering of the roof with what
may be the largest Green Roof in Uptown, making a big impact for the
environment and for the Sylvia Center, being more cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.

The needs of the homeless are met in different ways
Are you a Maintenance Professional looking to serve?
There are many opportunities available at CCO to use your skills and gifts to help serve the homeless. If you are interested, please contact us.
Consider a donation
Financial donations serve the children, parents, and individuals that are homeless and needy as directly as any hands on service can. Your donation is used to pay for food, a place to stay, and the services that enable and empower them to move to the next step of independency. Be a part of that process. Donate to CCO, and know where your dollar is spent.
