MAINTAINING EXCELLENCE ON 34TH STREET GOAL: COMPLETE CRITICAL AND NECESSARY RENOVATIONS ON 1243 34TH STREET, WITH AN ESTIMATED COST OF $520,000. CURRENT STATUS: Our facility is showing wear-and-tear from many years of brothers calling 34th Street home. Crucial updates are needed to maintain the safety of the house as well as update aspects that will prevent further damage and upkeep the facility. THE CHALLENGE: While the house has had limited renovations since it was purchased in 2006, it requires ongoing maintenance and necessary updates to maintain the current appeal. Due to financial limitations, the Alumni and Volunteer Corporation has been unable to fund all of the necessary renovations and upgrades that are needed. OUR TIMELINE: • Fall 2022-Spring 2023: Alumni and Volunteer Corporation to work with our contractor to finalize construction plans. • Summer 2023: Construction begins.
