MAHOGANY BUILDER’S COMMUNITY OUTREACH EFFORT = SUCCESS!
"The best measure of success is one's impact on the lives of others."

  Chicago (October 2008) - In an effort to support and raise money for local schools and non-for-profit organizations, Mahogany Builders donated $3,000 in handyman services.

As a local business, Mahogany Builders donated a total of forty-eight hours of handyman services to twelve silent auctions and raffles held by local schools and non-for-profit organizations.  Each of the $250 certificates was valid for a half day of handyman services to be performed by Mahogany Builders’ highly acclaimed crew. The community outreach effort proved to be a great success, as some of the certificates received double and even triple their face value in the silent auctions.

The local schools that received certificates for their fall fundraisers are:
Josephinum Academy
Lycee Francais De Chicago

Near North Montessori School

Among the wide variety of supported non-for-profit organizations’ events are:

Junior League of Chicago - Gazebo Holiday Market

“Committed to promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women and improving community through effective action and leadership of trained volunteers.”

 L.E.E.P. Forward - Into Arts Charity Event
“A benefit to help children with autism spectrum and related disorders achieve their fullest potential through the arts including drama, dance/movement, music and art as well as individual and group developmental therapy.”

 Journeys from PADS to HOPE
