Community
Ingrained in our culture is a desire to contribute to the community in which we live and work. That is why you will see us donating our time and resources to several organizations that are near and dear to our hearts all year round.
Shades of Pink Foundation
Every year, MainStreet Design Build supports the Shades of Pink Foundation. In previous years, we participated in their charitable golf outing by sponsoring golf balls and actively taking part in the event to help raise funds towards their annual goal.
In 2024, we’re taking our support to new heights by lacing up our sneakers and gearing up to make a difference at the Shades of Pink A Walk at the Zoo fundraising event! Watch our video to learn more about our involvement.
The Shades of Pink Foundation provides crucial assistance to hundreds of patients facing financial difficulties due to breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. Since 2005, they’ve been dedicated to helping breast cancer patients and survivors across Southeast Michigan by providing financial support for various expenses such as utility bills, rent and mortgage payments, COBRA payments, daycare fees, transportation costs, and more.
Join us as we continue to show that #MainStreetCares about making a positive impact in our community!
Toys For Tots, Run by the United States Marine Corps Reserve
Each year, MainStreet Design Build supports Toys For Tots and their efforts to present holiday toys to less fortunate children in Oakland County. We typically start collecting new, unwrapped toys at our office the last week in November, which runs through the 3rd week in December. Thanks to our charitable supporters, over the past two years alone, we have managed to collect over 200 gifts for children in need. This year, Toys For Tots is facing a critical toy shortage. Help us fill our box with new, unwrapped toys. Your gift today will allow us to place critically needed toys, books, and games into the hands of children whose parents have fallen on difficult times.
Habitat for Humanity
Habitat for Humanity of Oakland County assists hundreds of families each year through programs in homeownership, homeowner-occupied critical home repairs, veterans housing assistance, and financial education and mentoring to those not yet ready for the homeownership experience.
For several years, MainStreet Design Build has been a proud sponsor of Habitat for Humanity of Oakland County, volunteering hours on Habitat projects and sponsoring the annual Fall Extravaganza that raises money to provide safe and affordable housing for low-income families in Oakland County every November.
MainStreet’s very own Steve Ramaekers was also appointed to the Board of Directors in May 15, 2015 and spent several years serving the organization well, actively pursuing the organization’s mission to put God’s love into action, bringing people together to build homes, communities and hope.
In celebration of our silver anniversary in 2016, MainStreet Design Build partnered with Habitat for Humanity of Oakland County again, along with Lawrence Technological University (LTU) and other industry leaders to build a home using a new community-focused design developed by university students. This partnership worked to mobilize volunteers and community partners in building this affordable home, providing a “hand up” and not a “hand out.”
If you have any interest in helping us support this fabulous organization, and building hope for the community, we welcome you to join us.
