    Currently we are looking for the following In-Kind Sponsorships:

Locker Room Cooling
Cost Unknown
The two original locker rooms do not have cooling running to them. During the hot summer days, the temperature in the rooms can reach 90 plus degrees. The heat is too much for clients and staff to bear so there are times they cannot use the pool facilities.

Heating System Boiler
                                   $35,000
One of the boilers used to provide heat to the CP Center that was installed in 1986 is beginning to show significant signs of pitting and breakdown. This system will need to be replaced soon before it fails.

Water Heater Replacement
(total cost) $12,525
There are 2 hot water (60 and 69 gallons) heaters within the CP Center that will soon need replacement

Roof Repair 
$12,500
The CP Center is in need of some repair work on the 1986 section of the roof.

Electric Tables
$10,000
Assist the caregiver getting a client in/out of their wheelchair for personal cares. Adjusting the height of the table provides significantly better body mechanics for caregivers moving a client on/off of a changing table.

Cubicle Updates & Remodel
$9,500

Remodel and update cubicle and counter area to provide for more private client/patient discussion.


10 Laptop Computers & Software
$9,000

Sound Reduction Panels
$8,000
The Center for Aquatic Rehabilitation and Exercise within the CP Center is in need of sound reduction panels to absorb the noise of the air handling systems and help reduce noise and make it easier for clients/patients/participants to hear instructors.

Two Prone Standers
$7,000

Units provide support so that a client is able to stand independently for up to 60 minutes.  When a client is in the standing position it increases their leg strength, trunk strength, trunk control and overall positioning. Regular use contributes to increased independence.


Waiting Room Furniture
  $7,000

The CP Center has two waiting room areas for persons coming to the center for therapy. Both are in need of new furniture.


Commercial Dryer
$2,000
CP currently relies on donated household dryers to use in the Adult Day Program and the Aquatics Center. The loads are too great for these machines to handle and are replaced often.

Copy Paper
$4,750

CP uses approximately 4 pallets of copy paper per year.


Locked & Rolling Medical Cabinet
$2,000
Many of the Adult Day Services Program participants bring medicine along with them for distribution throughout the day. A rolling locked cabinet would assist in distribution.

Carpet Cleaning
$1,500 to $2,500
A good portion of the center is carpeted and needs shampooing.

Storage Shed Roofing
