Outreach

As Taylor & Syfan works to create structures that are soundly engineered, it also works to contribute to the structure of its community. Its team of engineers is always there to lend a hand to organizations working to provide opportunity to those in need. From assisting the staff members of the SLO County EOC to supporting the Maxine Lewis Memorial Shelter to volunteering for Habitat for Humanity, Taylor & Syfan is a company that believes in giving back.

 

Habitat for Humanity
T&S is heading up the structural engineering of a new Habitat for Humanity project in San Luis Obispo. The project consists of two homes and Taylor & Syfan’s Nathan White is the Engineer of Record for both. It is a wonderful opportunity to volunteer time and participate in a worthwhile community project.

 

AIDS Support Network
T&S provided structural plans for the Gazebo in the AIDS Living Memorial Grove. The open trellis structure features a playful geometry and supports beautiful mature grapevines. The Grove is an ongoing planting and development project of the AIDS Support Network.

 

The Wellness Community
Taylor & Syfan donated services to the renovation of an URM building in Paso Robles, creating the Central Coast Cancer Center for this non-profit organization dedicated to providing free emotional support, education and hope for people with cancer and their loved ones.

 

Team in Training
Taylor & Syfan’s Chief Operating Officer Michelle McCovey-Good finishes her 5th Nike Women's Marathon with Team in Training. Michelle raised more than $3000 for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to help them in their goal of curing blood cancers.

 

United Methodist Church
Along with assisting the church rebuilding committee through the insurance phase of replacing the original church structure lost to arson fire, T&S provided the design of the new facility with a light-filled sanctuary, offices, gymnasium and classroom spaces.
