Concrete Cares, whose booth was set up next to Decorative Concrete LIVE! at the recent World of Concrete, raised more than $38,000 during the show this year. 15% of these proceeds went to the Al Oldenorlf family. Al Oldenorlf was a finisher for Sahara Concrete in Las Vegas as a lead foreman for many years before being stricken with bladder cancer.
At the Decorative Concrete LIVE! display, a bas-relief mural was designed and colored to pay tribute to Concrete Cares. The charitable group is also planning to be a part of WOC 2018. The organization also plans to be a sponsor for a Concrete Cares golf outing at the 2017 Concrete Decor Show at Innisbrook in Palm Harbor, Florida.
On July 18, Concrete Cares will host a golf tournament in Hastings, Nebraska. The charity also makes concrete tables that continue to be a hit to help families.
About Concrete Cares
Concrete Cares is a volunteer group focusing on fighting cancer on the “local level.” The nonprofit hosts fundraising events in communities across America. The aim of the organization is to make a difference in the local community by enabling friends, relatives and families to join the fight to provide support for those stricken with cancer. Signed banners and proceeds are presented to a local victim selected by community members.
