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.
