Thanks to Von Tobel and Simko Signs, volunteers and subcontractors who helped build The Crossing will receive a Project Neighbors hammer engraved with our logo.

Whether you joined us for one morning or showed up week after week, your hands helped build more than walls. You helped build a place of belonging for our neighbors.

We hope this hammer finds a place in your own home and reminds you that the work you did here will continue to matter for years to come.

Volunteers and subcontractors, please join us at the "Hard Hat" Grand Opening on June 25th to receive your hammer (while supplies last). Grand Opening details can be found at the link in our bio.

Thank you, Von Tobel and Simko Signs, for helping us thank the community whose help makes this all possible!

Moving into a new home can be exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. In the middle of boxes, paperwork, keys, and change, it is often the simplest things that help a person settle in: a clean towel, a box of tissues, a warm meal, a roll of paper towels, and a few everyday items already waiting when they walk through the door.

That is the kind of care Thrivent is helping provide for the 23 future residents of The Crossing. Through thoughtfully assembled Welcome Home baskets, Thrivent is helping ensure that each resident arrives to more than just an apartment—they arrive to a warm welcome.

As Thrivent shared, they wanted to support Project Neighbors because they "love the mission behind the organization" and wanted to help welcome residents into their new homes "with a reminder of the care, support, and memories that will soon be curated in their new space."

That spirit reflects Thrivent's broader commitment to helping people live generously and create positive impact in the communities they love. Their gift is a tangible reminder that the residents of The Crossing are not beginning this new chapter alone. Before the first box is unpacked or the first meal is cooked, a community is already welcoming them home.

Thank you, Thrivent, for helping make The Crossing feel like home from day one.

The Presbyterian Church Resale Shop has been investing in our community for years. Every donation dropped off, every item purchased, and every volunteer hour helps generate funding that is returned to local organizations working to meet real needs across our region.

Less than one year after breaking ground, The Crossing is nearing completion, and the progress is remarkable.

For an organization that has historically built single-family homes and duplexes, reaching this stage of a 23-unit apartment building is a major milestone. What began as an empty lot is now close to becoming 23 new affordable homes thanks to volunteers, donors, contractors, community partners, and future residents who believed this project was possible.

As anyone who has been around a construction project knows, construction has a timeline of its own. Some final work will still be underway on June 25, so this celebration will be a Hard Hat Grand Opening.

Guests will still be able to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony, tour the building, meet many of the people who make the project possible, and see the progress firsthand. Residents are expected to begin moving in later this summer once construction is fully complete and final inspections are finished.

Holding the event before residents move in also allows us to celebrate the community effort behind The Crossing without disturbing the privacy and peace of the people who will soon call it home.

We hope you’ll pardon our dust and join us as we celebrate how far we’ve come and look ahead to welcoming our first residents home.

The Crossing Hard Hat Grand Opening:
🗓️ Thursday, June 25
⏰ 4:30 pm: Ribbon-cutting ceremony (all are welcome)
⏰ 5:00-7:00 pm: Open house celebration with refreshments and live music (all are welcome)
