Promise Christian Academy is a special needs school comprised of eight classrooms, an occupational therapy room, speech therapy room, gym, teacher work space and offices, and a commercial kitchen.
Idea
Tilt-up Construction
Tilt-up construction eliminated exterior steel, metal stud framing and sheathing and a high dollar exterior façade, saving the client time and money. Working with ACI, the new design provided a low maintenance final product while keeping the desired curb appeal and exterior finishes.
Result
On schedule and under budget
Brinkmann worked closely with Promise to help design and manage the project to stay within the fundraising budget. Through constant communication and collaboration, the design-build team delivered a quality, alluring building, on schedule and within budget.
"Brinkmann Constructors not only employs the best of the best, but they also employ personnel who took the time to understand the special needs community and embrace our mission. This created top-notch teamwork that made the project flow seamlessly. Brinkmann Constructors has left a lasting impression on the hearts and minds of the Promise community. We will forever embrace them as a part of our family and a part of our story."
A Dream Big Benefit hosted by Bob and Kim Brinkmann raised money to support the school and their mission to provide special education through integrated therapeutic activities. A total of $630,000 was raised, helping fund scholarships and financial support for students.
