Estonian Church Foundation is a non-profit organization that owns the church and community centre housing many of the Estonian community's functions. The building is old and in constant need of repair and finding willing volunteer to fix an electrical or plumbing problem is very difficult in an aging community. Back in 2009 funds had been donated to renovate the washrooms which involved removing old toilets and existing stalls, ripping out the old floor and putting in new floorboards with a new vinyl surface, installing new toilets, seals and fixtures, painting the old wooden stalls, doors and walls.
