Supporting our Community

Today Awesome Exteriors decided to support a worthy community cause. We are donating $10 to the Crystal Judson Family Justice Center for each 4-H club in Pierce County that participates in the 4-H collection drive and collects over 75 items.

For those of you in the Puget Sound area, you may remember the Crystal Judson (Brehm) case. She was a victim of domestic violence and then tragically shot in front of her children by her husband. This case garnered much media attention because Crystal's husband was a police officer.

However, every day right here in our communities, hundreds of women and children are abused. The center offers a variety of services all under one roof.

Every day we deal with homeowners looking to save money on energy costs or to increase the "curb appeal" of their home. We know and want you to remember that every day there are women and children without safe homes or even a place to call home.

The 4-H club that our family is a member of already collected over 100 items and put out the challenge to all Pierce County clubs to gather donations. For each club that donates 75 items, we will donate $10 cash to the center.

We would like to extend this challenge to all home improvement companies to support local causes and give of their time, materials and money.
