WINDOWS, AND SIDING, AND ROOFING … PART DEUX!
Coastal Windows & Exteriors Holds Successful Build Day & Announces 2nd Build Day & Rock This House Fundraising Event on November 16th, 2013!
LYNN, MA – Coastal Windows & Exteriors of Beverly, MA, teamed up with North Shore Habitat for Humanity – in coordination with Warner Bros. classic film, “The Wizard of Oz” – to help build new homes for local families in need this past Saturday, October 19, 2013. In the spirit of the Magic of Oz, Coastal Windows & Exteriors has donated the roof, siding, windows and doors that will turn the dilapidated house at 6 Grover Street in Lynn, MA, into a home for some very lucky local families.
Coastal Windows & Exteriors Owner Stephanie Vanderbilt was thrilled be back in her hometown, where she once served as a teacher of the deaf, helping the community once again! She personally installed her first window ever – and the first window on the new home as well as the first piece of vinyl siding – during their 1st Build Day on October 19th! All volunteers enjoyed a delicious BBQ lunch courtesy of The North Shore Meat House and dessert by Cygnet Bakery.
Second Coastal Build Day Announced
Coastal Windows & Exteriors’ second “Coastal Build Day” is scheduled for Saturday, November 16th, 2013, 8:30am-3:30pm at the Grover Street house in Lynn, MA. Once again, they will be recruiting 20 lucky volunteers to be a part of this amazing daylong community build experience that also includes a lunch, the gift of a commemorative Coastal Build Day t-shirt and a complimentary ticket to the ROCK This House! Fundraiser to benefit Habitat for Humanity is happening the same night.

ROCK This House! Fundraiser
On the same evening of Saturday, November 16th from 7:00-11:00pm, Coastal Windows & Exteriors will co-host a fundraising event at Vittori Rocci Post in Beverly, MA to continue raising funds to support North Shore Habitat for Humanity. Coastal Windows & Exteriors wants to celebrate as they completed the exterior work on the house. Now it’s time to raise the roof and kick up our heels to raise some funds for the interior work. There will be a live band, food, cash bar and live auction. Also on par with Stephanie’s ongoing focus on being trusted advisors to the community, she will be educating on home tips for the upcoming winter season. If you’re unable to volunteer or attend the fundraising event, the community can still help pave the way for this new home by making a donation to North Shore Habitat for Humanity.

The new Habitat for Humanity sponsored home on Grover Street in Lynn, MA is a complete gut renovation that will ultimately be transformed into a three family veterans preference home. The future homeowners and volunteers have been working side-by-side on initial demolition of the triple-decker for the past few months. The extensive renovation will continue through the fall and early winter with plans for it to be completed in early 2014.
