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 felt thrilled to return to her hometown and give back to the community she once served as a teacher of the deaf. On October 19th, during their first Build Day, she personally installed her first-ever window—also the first window and first piece of vinyl siding on the new home. Volunteers enjoyed a delicious BBQ lunch, generously provided by The North Shore Meat House, followed by dessert from Cygnet Bakery.
Second Coastal Build Day Announced
Coastal Windows & Exteriors’ second Coastal Build Day is scheduled for Saturday, November 16th, 2013, from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The build will take place at the Grover Street home in Lynn, MA. Once again, they will recruit 20 lucky volunteers for this exciting, hands-on community experience.
Participants will help build, learn, and give back while working alongside the Coastal team and local supporters. In addition, volunteers will receive lunch, a commemorative Coastal Build Day t-shirt, and more. Each volunteer will also get a complimentary ticket to that night’s ROCK This House! Fundraiser event. As a result, it’s a full day of impact, celebration, and community connection.
However, space is limited—so act fast. Please email svanderbilt@mycoastalwindows.com to reserve your spot and receive full event details.

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.
