The Donations
Paint Her Pink “The Beauty in Breast Cancer”
Founder Rhonda Julian was diagnosed with breast cancer in February of 2013.

O’LYN Roofing donated $500 in October of 2013 to the foundation. Learn more about the foundation.
Seven year old Jesse Heikkila was diagnosed with High Risk Neuroblastoma in April of 2009. Nearly three years later, Jesse is undergoing expensive and lengthy experimental treatment to stop the spread of cancer. The treatment has left the family in dire financial need. O’LYN Roofing and the Tom Olen Memorial Fund has been working together to help the family out in any way possible. This year the Olen Memorial donated $3,000 to the family to help cover the expenses of travel and medical treatment. Additionally, O’LYN Roofing employees are coming together to “adopt” the family for Christmas and provide the family with a well deserved happy holiday.
