Mary's renovation project. The huelsmann foundation generously funded at the $250,000 level last year. The rationale for this request is based on unforeseen costs in the discovery phase with contractors inspecting and bidding on the work to be completed.since the last update to the foundation, there are new structural needs that require reinforcement of the floor, regardless of what materials we decide to use. Also, the initial plan was to keep and refinish the existing pews. However, they are not solid wood, but rather veneer. It was determined that it is more cost effective for us to purchase new solid wood pews. The total cost of for new solid wood pews with padded kneelers is $125,000. less
