City Spark

CitySpark represents the portion of City on a Hill’s 3-year strategic plan “Forward in Faith” that involves investing in our facilities to meet the needs of today’s resident nonprofits and of those we serve in our community.

· Our aging building needs a “spark” to avoid disruption of services.

· Nonprofits have an increased need for technology and security in individual and shared spaces.

· City on a Hill has work to do when it comes to helping those we serve find their way through the COAH building.

Our goal is to raise $450,000.

City Spark Plan & Impact

    · Roof + HVAC unit replacement: Flat roof in large area of the building will be replaced, including replacement of malfunctioning roof HVAC unit.
