Hi my name is Dave Maciulis, I want to take a moment to acknowledge a good friend of mine, Ross Marchesano. Many of you know Ross and the trials and tribulations he has faced throughout his life. Yet through everything, he continues to give back — especially through his Dundas Ontario sports camp, at the Dundas Driving Park where he’s made a lasting positive impact on youth and our community.

Despite all he pours into others, Ross has been struggling to find an affordable home. So we’ve made the decision to step up with the tools and resources we have — and build Ross a tiny home on wheels. ❤️

Our goal is to have it completed before winter.

We were blessed by a local supply company that heavily discounted the framing materials, so we are now moving into the next phase of construction.

We are currently in need of:

• Insulation

• Plywood / sheathing

• Metal siding

• Metal roofing sheets

• Exterior doors (single & double)

• Small opening windows

• Electrical wiring

• Pot lights & interior lighting

• Shower stall / compact bathroom fixtures

• Or Rona / Home Depot gift cards to help purchase the remaining materials

If anyone is able to donate materials or contribute in any way — big or small — it will make a real difference. We will come and pick up any items.

Let’s come together and show what community truly means.

Let’s help Ross have a warm, safe, dignified place to call home this winter.

Thank you, sincerely.

— Dave
