Charitable Donation

There are so many wonderful causes in northeastern CT (and beyond) who look to Chace Building Supply for support. While the entire Chace team would like to be able to assist with each cause, financial constraints don’t allow that luxury. In order to determine which causes will be extended support, a committee of employees made up from all stores and different areas of the business, meet once a month to consider written requests from community organizations. The committee meets the second Wednesday of the month, and considers any requests in that are made in writing. In 2006, Chace donated a total of more than $27,000 to the organizations listed below.

Chace Building Supply donates equipment and labor in an effort to foster the building trades among youth in Northeastern CT.

April 14, 2005 – Chace Building Supply has been working closely with the Builders Association of Eastern Connecticut (BAEC) to foster young people's interest in the building industry. Several of Chace’s customers, who include area building industry professionals, have expressed concern over the severe shortage of labor interested in the building trades. Chace’s plan is to assist in providing qualified members of the work force for the future. Vice President, Ron Tetrault, has met with a local technical school to define a plan for partnering in the future. In addition Chace employees participated in career fairs and paired builders with tech school students for projects. Recently Chace was asked to donate labor and use of their equipment to move a shed constructed by the Challenge School in Brooklyn to it’s new home at Camp Horizons in South Windham.
