NASHVILLE, TN / ACCESSWIRE / August 14, 2024 / Rio Grande Fence Co. of Tennessee donated and installed a Trex composite board and ornamental steel fence to Conexión Américas' multipurpose satellite lot in Nashville. The installation secured a rear perimeter and added an attractive front facing the street and along the property line.
"This fence is going to help us to provide more safety and more privacy for our team, our staff, and our guests," Martha Silva, Co-Executive Director of Conexión Américas, said. "We are very thankful to Rio Grande for the generosity, for the donation, and for the hard work to make our work easier and to continue helping the Latino community in Nashville."
"Our Service Projects allow us to utilize the talents we've been given to aid a local non-profit every year," said Derek Smith, Chief Operating Officer & 3rd Generation Owner. "For over 20 years, Conexión Américas has provided newcomers to Nashville with services to acclimate them to their vibrant new home. We are thrilled to aid in the revitalization of their property so they can continue their mission."
The first section, a run of 8' height, privacy-style fence of Trex composite boards set on steel posts, secured the back property line. The second section, a 5' height installation angling from the front of the property on Nolensville Pike and down the property's side, included Ameristar Montage Plus commercial steel fence.
The multipurpose lot facilitates overflow parking for events at Conexión Américas and Casa Azafrán, an MNPS school, which also serves as a lead voting center in the community.
