The 2022-2025 Capital Campaign is coming to a close, and to date it has raised $521,340–almost 96% of our goal of $544,500!

What We’ve Done
The funds raised by the Capital Campaign allowed OUUC to make significant and long-lasting improvements to the building and grounds:
-Paid off OUUC’s mortgage to free up funds which would otherwise have gone toward interest payments;
-Replaced four gas furnances–three of which had failed by 2022–with electric heat pumps that are more energy efficient and allow for cooling in the warm summer months;
-Added an electric heat pump to the Commons area;
-Repainted the entire exterior of the building;
-Recaulked and resealed the exterior of the building to ensure its long-term resistance to inclement weather;
-Repaired and repainted half of OUUC’s metal roof;
-Replaced OUUC’s antiquated fire alarm panel;
-Added mulch to many of the garden beds to reduce weeds.
