Jerry Tabor's Charity House

Jerry L. Tabor Building Inc. has generously donated the proceeds of the sale of a house he built to benefit Mercy Foundation's Children's Healthcare programs.

Tabor, a local builder, built the Charity House for the purpose of donating the proceeds to benefit children in the community. In addition, Douglas County realtor, Ben Tatone, along with members of the Umpqua Valley Home Builders Association,* played key roles in the Charity House, helping out with the construction, as well as the sale of the house.

A ceremonial check presentation has been set for Tuesday, April 8 at 2:30 p.m. at the Charity House, which is located at 1726 NE Shale Court in Roseburg.

Mercy's CEO, Kelly C. Morgan; Mercy's board chair, Brian Pargeter; Mercy Foundation's board chair, Gary Wayman and Mercy Foundation President, Lisa Platt, will be on hand to accept the check from Mr. Tabor. The new owners have also been invited.
