Donation Helps Shelter for Girls with Roof Over Their Heads; $22,000 Was

Gifted from Mobile C-Arm Services

The Treehouse Center is a residential home in Conroe, TX serving young girls 6-15 years of age
with a safe place to live until they are stable enough to go back to living with their parents or
eligible for adoption. The Center provides an individualized structured residential program to
assist troubled girls in achieving a productive daily life, free from abuse, delinquency, substance
abuse and neglect. Their roof is 40 years old and literally falling in. A donation changed everything.

Conroe, TX, November 14, 2018 --(PR.com)-- A grant of $22,000 from Mobile C-Arm Services will
help The Treehouse Center begin repairs at the shelter for girls in Conroe. Mobile C-Arm Services is a
mobile fluoroscopy c-arm rental company based in Houston with satellite locations in Austin, San
Antonio, and the Dallas area. Founder Carlos Castro founded the company in 2009 and believes in
empowering youth through supportive actions.

The Treehouse Center is a residential home niched in a neighborhood near River Plantation in Conroe
serving young girls 6-15 years of age with a safe place to live until they are stable enough to go back to
living with their parents or eligible for adoption. The Treehouse Center provides an individualized
structured residential program to assist troubled girls in achieving a productive daily life, free from abuse,
delinquency, substance abuse and neglect.

The shelter was founded 9 years ago by Dr. Day Lee Snell and Dr. Kathleen Tanner when they saw a
need to provide girls with troubled pasts, situations of substance abuse or in distressed situations with the
proper guidance and therapies necessary to turn their young lives around. The Center offers individual
services to residents to develop their overall well-being as a youth as well as recreational opportunities in
the community. A few of the older girls participate on the Lone Star Chaos Junior Roller Derby team at
Rainbow Roller Rink in Conroe.

Each resident will be at the home for approximately one year and derive from areas around Dallas, local
communities, and CPS. Currently the youngest girl residing at the Center is 6 and the oldest youth is 13
years old. Care is provided 24 hours each day with a capacity of housing 25 girls at any one time.

Through therapy and cognitive behavior therapy the residents learn different strategies for coping instead
of unacceptable behaviors. The residential shelter is structured to provide full time care, education,
support and counseling to improve their self-image and modify behavior to enable the girls to lead happy
productive lives in society.

The largest issue at the home has been trying to fund a new roof. The existing roof is 40 years old with
huge gaps of holes that could collapse any time.

"We have been struggling to come up with the money and have tried many avenues of reaching out to
possible donors, applying for grants and all to no avail," said Carmie Cantu, Executive Director of The
Treehouse Center. "The donation is something we are extremely grateful for as it allows us to continue

providing a safe and comfortable place for them to live while they get better.”

Fortunately, Mobile C-Arm Services heard about the roof challenge and wanted to be a part of helping the
community.

Carlos Castro, Founder of C-Arm Services, reached out to Dr. Snell with the $22,000 grant.

“As a father of 4, I believe there is not a more important legacy than the actions we take to empower our
youth. I am privileged to have the opportunity to assist this inspiring group in the hope it can continue
their mission.”

Mobile C-Arm Services and Radiology, Imaging, Staffing & Consulting either rents or staffs Radiology
Techs to a substantial number of Hospitals and Surgery Centers throughout the state of Texas. This is
useful when a C-Arm is unavailable for various reasons-unusually busy clinics, repairs, or supplemental
needs in a medical facility. More information about Mobile C-Arm Services may be found on

A C-arm is an imaging scanner intensifier. The name derives from the C-shaped arm used to connect the
x-ray source and x-ray detector to one another. C-arms have radiographic capabilities, though they are
used primarily for fluoroscopic intraoperative imaging during surgical, orthopedic and emergency care
procedures.

Carmie Cantu was overjoyed with the donation. “It's imperative that the girls have a solid roof over their
heads. The safety of the girls in Always our priority.”
