What is the true condition of the Tabernacle at Oakdale?
There are lots of figures being tossed around. We'll try to decode some of them for you.
We want to bring this historic building back into service for our community.
We are making a plan and of course, this includes looking for opportunities to raise the money we'll need. If you are experienced in fundraising or in writing grants, we could use your help. If you have an idea or know of a business willing to donate materials, please email us.
Donations are always appreciated. Consider making a donation through our GoFundMe campaign here: https://bit.ly/2T5asb4
We are collecting a list of volunteers and skills to help when we start rehabbing the Tabernacle. There will be plenty of opportunities to help. Some involve physical work but there will also be opportunities to help with things like fundraising. For accuracy, we are asking everyone that wants to help, to sign up here: Volunteer & Email signup Thank you.
