St. James Place Apartments

We’re excited to have surpassed the Perry Foundation matching challenge of $65,000. Thanks to the generosity of 96 individual donors who contributed $44,457, along with nine grants totaling $22,000, we raised an incredible $66,457.

We cannot adequately express our gratitude to everyone who supported this effort. More than 70 donors made gifts in honor of our friend, Tim Hess, who tragically passed away last November. It is both deeply moving and bittersweet to thank his wife and family for their thoughtfulness and generosity during such a difficult time.

And now, we are thrilled to share that the apartments in Roseland are complete. We have the certificates of occupancy in hand, leases have been signed, and residents have moved in. A few final landscaping details remain—planting trees and shrubs and adding railroad ties along the parking areas—but the apartment project itself is finished.
