Update on Whitehaven High School STEM Building Project

March 17, 2023

      We are so appreciative of the your support of the Whitehaven High School STEM Building Project. We surpassed our original fundraising goal of $6,250,000. To date, we have raised $7,000,000 surpassing our original cost estimate set by our contractor, Montgomery Martin, in 2019. Unfortunately, there is a comp!ication. 

      Historically unprecedented inflation and a specific state building regulatory change increased our cost to $9,300,000. We are confident the State will provide a $1,000,000 grant for the 'storm shelter" we now need to include due to the regulatory change. That leaves us $1,300,000 to $1,500,000 short in our effort.

       We need to build these labs now for Whitehaven's college-bound children. We will therefore conclude our capital campaign on June 30, 2023. We will start the construction effort in July.  

      You have been generous with us. We share a vision of connecting capital with solutions that makes our community thrive. We are so close to succeeding in our effort. If there is anything else you can give to help us close the funding gap, it would be wonderful.

 

Thank you.
