are honored to help accommodate the growing need for children to have
a safe home and give them hope for generations to come” said Nieri.
BIA President David Tuttle and Charitable Foundation President
Rex Thompson stated that “our organization represents many caring
businesses in central South Carolina that will help build a better
community by offering donations of materials, money and labor
toward the construction of this special home for boys and their house
parents allowing them to live in a structured family environment”.
The estimate construction cost of “Toby’s Cottage “is $299,000 and
is expected to serve as a prototype for future cottages in the 50 year
expansion plan for Boys Farm. The new cottage will allow Boys Farm
to increase the number of children served by 25%. The cottage is
named in memory of William Tobin “Toby” Cassels. Toby, known
for his energetic leadership, as a motivator, and for his persistence,
was studying business at USC when he passed away last year at the
age of 21.
Donations in support of “Toby’s Cottage” are being accepted by the
HBA Charitable Foundation, a South Carolina nonprofit 501 (c) (3)
organization affiliated with the Building Industry Association, 625
Taylor Street, Columbia, SC or to Boys Farm, Inc, a South Carolina
nonprofit 501 (c) (3) organization, PO Box 713, Newberry, SC 29108.
