Cupola complete



The renovations to the cupola have been completed. The new cupola provides a semi conditioned space in the attic. Constructed using insulated low e glass and insulated panels with louvers that allow in fresh air this new design replaces the open cupola that attracted unwanted wildlife and also was completely exposed to weather.

Move In Day - Kiwanis Cottage













Staff and kids are working together to move into the new Kiwanis cottage today. The space features a whole new color scheme selected by residents with help from our Interior Designer Jeanne Barbet. The Donnelly team worked through the weekend to ensure the cottage was ready for our guys. Special recognition goes to Harold Stempert for his tireless dedication to the project.
