ROSENDIN IN THE COMMUNITY
SHALOM ZONE
Communities in Gallatin, TN, face poverty, crime, and
inadequate education challenges. Rosendin proudly
teamed up with DPR construction for their Service
September project of helping the Gallatin Shalom Zone
transform the former Union High School into a Resource
Center. At the epicenter of what will become a community
renaissance, Union High Resource Center will provide
children and adults a safe place to study, play, get help
with homework, and participate in recreational activities.
Parents will have the opportunity to learn, grow and
interact with their families and community, and seniors will
benefit from the center’s wellness initiatives and programs.
The DPR and Rosendin team purchased and replaced old,
worn-out ballast/tube fixtures throughout the building.
