Help MB Jessee Help Oakland’s Kids!

I want to tell you about this terrific place I’ve discovered. It is a skate park. A clean, safe place where kids (and those who are kids at heart) can skate and play. It allows kids of all ages and races to have fun together, to develop their skills and support each other and a real community has taken root there. Sounds awesome, right? This amazing place is right here in West Oakland. Yes, West Oakland. These days good news for Oakland is awfully hard to come by. That’s why I want to share Town Park Skatepark at De Fremery Park with you.

I’ve seen this amazing skatepark because I visit there often with my son. Town Park was developed by Oakland artist and local hero Keith “K-Dub” Williams. K-Dub hoped to create a facility that would let Oakland kids stay in their own community instead of traveling to other cities to skate. The skatepark quickly became a destination spot and plays host to contests and other events often. Many skateboarding pros visit often and skate with and inspire Oakland’s kids. Town Park truly represents the very best of Oakland.

As wonderful as Town Park is, there are still some problems here. There are areas of the park that need to have work done to make it safe for the kids. Skateboarding ramp equipment is expensive! One ramp in particular needs to be resurfaced—to the tune of $10000. I have been able negotiate the costs down but we are still about $5500 short.

Here’s what I’d like to offer. For a contribution of $500 you’ll receive an MB Jessee Painter For A Day certificate (a $600 value and redeemable for one full year!), a MB Jessee hat and a limited edition Oaklandish Town Park hoodie. And every cent of that $500 goes right to the skatepark! The certificate can be used for yourself or you may give it as a gift to a friend or family member. So really, it’s a double gift—one for you or a loved one and one for the kids of Oakland!

So what do you think? Will you help the kids of Oakland—while helping yourself to a beautiful paint job!—this holiday season? Thank you in advance for your support and a very Happy Holidays to you!

Customer Reviews

“Julie, by the way, I have never been so impressed with the service of a painting job before! It was like magical elves came and painted our walls without us having to do a thing! It looks amazing and just wanted to let you know how happy we are. Thanks”

“I highly recommend MB Jesse Painting to anyone looking for a professional team that does an impressive job. They are on time, efficient and clean up well each and every day they are on site. They pay attention to detail and listen to the needs of their clients. In addition, they give back to the community. A Five Star team all the way around.”

— Erin Troy

“High quality work from a pleasant and qualified staff. Thank you!”

— Paul Markovich

“In all the years I've worked with MB Jessee, I'm always so impressed by your crews. They are so respectful of everything--you never even know they're there! Except that the paint looks amazing when they're gone. We've had one showing of our home and already have an offer. I'm sure it is because the paint looks so beautiful.”

“Just had MB Jessee paint the interior of our house and they did a wonderful job. They tackled some crazy wallpaper as well as painted some very high ceilings and walls. The whole process was quick and they did a great job! We are very pleased. I was also very impressed by the crew. They were very personable, kind and actually took pride in the work they were doing. In one of our conversations with the lead Ricardo, he actually told me he was very proud of how the rooms had turned out. I agree sir! It turned out great and it's not often you hear someone thinking of your home like they would theirs, and putting that level of work and quality into it. That made a huge difference in how I viewed this company. Ricardo, you were fantastic and thank you for the great job, we will be using you again.”

“MB Jessee just finished our exterior and we couldn't be happier with our experience. The foreman (Pedro) and lead painter (Ricardo) were incredible to work with: they communicated scheduling clearly, Ricardo was a joy to be around every day, the showed up early every day, were incredibly tidy and did great paint work. The final walk through experience was incredible. Pedro pointed out items I missed demonstrating a clear desire to complete another quality project. I highly recommend them. As others have noted they definitely aren't the cheapest but you quickly realize that you're getting what you pay for. The 3 year guarantee is also a nice touch since there are likely touch up items that will show up after the job is done.”

— Joshua Jansen

“Julie,Just to let you know I am very appreciative of your crew catching the plumbing/mold problem. It was very astute of them. I wanted to let you know that again your crew has done excellent work here, please pass this along to Mr. Jessee. There are some bumps in the road here, but the painting and your crew has not been one of them. Their work is the only thing going right currently, and this crew is very nice and respectful. It is much appreciated. Thank you again.”

“Very easy to work with, they did an outstanding job with our project of re-painting our painting our kitchen cabinets. Given the scope of the job and that our kitchen is roughly half of our upstairs living area they did a fantastic job of minimizing the mess. Workmanship was top notch, would definitely recommend.”

— Vince Scola

“Thank you for the support you have given the Women's Cancer Resource Center over the past year!”

— Margo - Director Women's Cancer Resource Center

“I just wanted to send you an email to say that John did such a great job over here today. He is truly a hard worker. He has the perfect balance of friendliness, honesty, and professionalism. I trust him. He takes the time to do the job to the best of his ability and that is what sets him (and your company) apart from the competition. He didn't make me feel rushed. He really made me feel like our job was the most important thing in the world. Thanks again!”
