A Sense of Place Works with the African Community Center to Help a Family of Five

A Sense of Place (“ASOP”) recently worked on another project with the ECDC – African Community Center of Las Vegas (“ACC”) to help another family of five.  ASOP helped decorate and organize this apartment in Las Vegas thanks to community donations including from our partner, Goodwill Industries of Southern Nevada (“Goodwill”).   This picture shows two of the five rooms decorated by ASOP, a bedroom that will be used by an adult female and two children and the bathroom.

The ACC is a multicultural resource center dedicated to helping newcomers to Las Vegas with a wide range of educational, social, and other support services as they relocate to Southern Nevada.  As part of the ACC’s programs, the ACC provides housing and some furniture (but no home décor) to those relocating to Southern Nevada through Federal grants and community donations. 

ASOP recently partnered with Goodwill to further our respective missions of providing assistance and empowerment to low-income and displaced persons in Southern Nevada. Through this partnership, Goodwill allocates funding and in-kind donations to ASOP to provide home décor, home organization systems and related services to low-income or displaced persons.
