Community Involvement
As a family store, we help other families in our community. Kimball Building Supplies Centre actively supports Ronald McDonald House, Scouts of Canada, and the Windsor & Essex County Cancer Centre Foundation.
"When Greater Windsor Home Builders' Association made a commitment to the MRI Field of Dreams Campaign, Kimball Building Supplies Centre in Essex, Ontario was there to donate and deliver building materials. Together with the Windsor & Essex County Cancer Centre Foundation and many other volunteers, we helped build a house and donate all proceeds to this worthwhile community cause," said former store owner, Harold Kimball.
In loving memory of Harold Lloyd Kimball (1943 - 2014)
Harold was the co-founder of Kimball Building Supplies Centre. His dedication and hard work paid off through his enjoyment of vintage cars, travel and the occasional round of golf.
He was passionate about the building supply centre, and his passion will continue to shine through in his family, friends and employees.
He will forever be deeply missed.
