hearts and home campaign
Hydrants and Hearts created the Hearts and Home Campaign last year to help support the SCEP Centre. The SCEP CENTRE is an intensive early intervention preschool program that supports children with complex needs and offers guidance and support for their parents and caregivers.
SCEP recently purchased a new home to support their programs and client’s needs. Hydrants and Hearts wanted to show our support by redoing the entire yard to make it beautiful, safe, user-friendly, and exactly what these kids need and deserve. Think Extreme Home Makeover Yard Edition.
There were many sponsors, donations, and people that helped make this dream a reality. We’d like to thank them now!
Huge thanks to Chad and his crew from Anything Concrete and Callum and his team at Great White Concrete Developments for handling this massive over 4000 sqft roundabout driveway for our campaign. They donated 100% of their time to prep and pour this amazing driveway that will make drop-offs and pickups so much easier for SCEP’s clients.
Thank You to Sean Stefan and The Rusty Shovel Landscape Shop! Sean didn’t bat an eye when we asked for support with this project. He said where, when and what can we do to help. From a more than generous cash donation of $5,000 plus a massive discount on the majority of our landscaping material.
But that wasn’t enough,…Thanks to Sean with the assistance from Aquascape Inc., and Peregrine Landscape Construction they organized an absolutely amazing and successful day with multiple different landscaping contractors around the province to install a stunning water feature for SCEP CENTRE Early Intervention & Training Services. This will provide so many amazing experiences for the children and staff of the SCEP Centre. We’ve already witnessed the enjoyment it hfirst hand while working at the centre.
The genuine care and interest from The Rusty Shovel struck a cord with the staff of the SCEP Centre and we can certainly speak for everyone when we say our hearts our full thanks to people and companies like you.
We’d like to acknowledge Fries Tallman Lumber for their more than generous donations of building materials. They saved us thousands of dollars supplying all of our decking material. From lumber, to Trex composite decking, maintenance free railing, doors, hardware, building materials and more.
On behalf of the SCEP CENTRE Early Intervention & Training Services and our charity Hydrants and Hearts we can’t thank you enough. You’ve let our organizations know just how much supporting the community means to you. Shout out to Mark Johnston and everyone at Fries Tallman Lumber for the partnership.
Huge and massive Thanks to Preston Boyce and LP Building Solutions for Professionals for donating 100% of the siding, trim, and more to complete this project. We saved thousands of dollars thanks to this incredible donation. The product was amazing to work with, looks beautiful, will last for a very long time, and pulls the entire project together.
Serbu Sand & Gravel Ltd., a local company stepped up in so many ways to bring this project home. From hauling away old material to supplying 100’s of yards of base, rock, and more for our driveway, synthetic grass and decorative rock ways. You were there on day one and right till the end of the project. We can’t thank Nathan and his team enough for saving our organizations thousands of dollars with their generous donations.
Whenever we needed material, even on short notice they made sure we had what we needed to keep this project going.
What a community-minded company. Put your hands together for Serbu Sand and Gravel, we sure are!!!
Huge Shout out to Velocity Vinyl Fencing for the tremendous work they did on short notice for our Hearts and Home Campaign for SCEP CENTRE Early Intervention & Training Services. They donated a significant amount of the material and almost all their labour to save us thousands of dollars. The fence offers some much-needed privacy for our neighbours and also a very safe and beautiful area for the children of SCEP to play in. The product is beautiful, Brian and his team worked fast and hard to get us to the finish line with this project.
Big thanks to Wayne Building Products for donating all of the metal we needed for all of our cladding, soffit, fascia, and eavestroughs to complete this project.
So generous and allowed us to save a lot of money for this campaign. Also want to thank Firefighters Brett Talaga from Talaga’s Seamless Eavestroughs and Mike Chillog for donating their time to complete all this work. Unbelievable!!!!
Big big thanks to Kalron Construction Ltd. For kicking off our project by tearing out the over 4,000sqft of old driveway and hauling it off to the dump.
They cut their fees way down saving us a couple thousand dollars and got to work exactly when we needed them.
Thanks so much for helping us out and donating a significant amount of labour for our campaign.
Thanks so much to Just Bins Waste Disposal for donating a bin for the entire donation of our project and dumping it multiple times. This was such a great convenience for us and all the contractors working on site.
Also a huge thanks for the support at our Battle of the Badges Hockey Game putting together a great video montage. We really appreciate all the support!!!
Thanks to Tony, Jesse, and Barclay from Peregrine Landscape Construction for the architectural drawings for the yard, their work and coordination on the water feature and the work on the synthetic grass. We really appreciate the guidance, support, and expertise in these areas.
They donated all of the labour and time to do this. Amazing!!!
Thanks so much to Kustom Kitties Canada for building and supplying all of the play structures for the kids of SCEP. From the outdoor kitchen to the fort house, balance beams, sandbox, and more. The children will enjoy these beautiful creations and donations for years to come. Amazing work!!!
Huge thanks to Justin from Greenlight Garage Doors . He came on short notice and repaired and serviced all of our garage doors. Added a new motor, wall key pads, and new remotes. He did this all by donation. Didn’t charge us a dime. Thanks a lot for the generous donation of material and labour.
Last but certainly not least we have to Thanks our Platinum Partnership with Allscape Landscaping . Rylan and his team were absolutely top notch. He came on board and supported us from a general contractor role for a large portion of this campaign, from keeping the project on time, scheduling and booking material, they were there through it all.
Rylan and his crew also donated hundreds of hours of their time to carry this project.
In labour hours alone their donation was over $10,000. Wow!!! Absolutely incredible!!! The generosity for our campaign and the SCEP Centre is heartwarming and then some.
We can’t say enough good things about the professionalism, care, and amazing quality in workmanship and attention to detail that the entire Allscape team provided.
It’s also important to thank and recognize the Hydrants and Hearts Committee, all the Regina Professional Fire Fighters Association IAFF Local 181 for donating nearly $13,000 of our own money. We have just under 300 Local 181 members and we had over 60 of those firefighters (and a few retired ones too) come out and donated thousands of hours to plan, fundraise, manage, organize, and supply so much labour to make this campaign a possibility. Without the support of our own members an undertaking like this would not be possible.
