“I finally feel I can take a deep breath. This is where the healing begins.” -Melina, working mother of 4 who was experiencing homelessness. @campaign_lotus linked her @cltfamhousing to @grubbproperties so that she could sign her own lease in this beautiful community🙌🏠
I appreciated the opportunity to moderate this month's #LeadershipRaleigh panel on "School & Community Partnerships"- so important! I'm grateful for the positive response from @raleighchamber members on offering apprenticeships & helping expand students' "social capital."
A common theme across the panel is the importance of exposing students to opportunities- whether that’s opening your tech company’s doors so they see it’s not all coding or offering an intro workshop so they can see what it’s really like- your business can help #LeadershipRaleigh
I'm honored to join such a talented team and thrilled to lead our philanthropic strategy as we scale Lotus Campaign's innovative housing-focused solution to #homelessness in #Charlotte and to new communities.
I'm excited to share I'm the new SVP of Development & Strategic Partnerships for Lotus Campaign! We aim to open new doors for those experiencing homelessness by serving as a bridge between the real-estate sector and our nonprofit social service partners. #newjob#housingsolutions
Since 2018, Lotus has been breaking down stigmas & financial barriers that keep landlords from renting to our vulnerable neighbors. This has unlocked housing for 375+ ppl in #Charlotte w/ nearly 98% from our Landlord Participation Prg going on to support themselves independently!
Thanks for the invite to present! We’re eager to welcome folks back to build sites. To quote an earlier #BBSummit21 speaker: “People want to help… to be a part of something good.” Be part of the solution to our #affordablehousing crisis by partnering w/ Habitat #TogetherWeBuild
@outreach_cghsnc@HabitatWake@FYI_cghsnc Our Kissena Lane homes in Apex are really coming together thanks to your student volunteers coming back in full force - thank you! You're creating future leaders in more ways than one, and our community is grateful
Let's build up some karma.
I'll donate to @HabitatWake after tonight's game: $10 per Canes goal, $1 per SOG. That typically ends up in the $30-80 range; if enough of you match (directly or picking your own amount), we can make a big difference in people's lives.
Who else is in?
New day, new fiscal year, new @HabitatWake staff, new volunteers, new homebuyer: all on the build site together 🙏❤️ Here’s to 50 new affordable homes and 40 home preservation projects this year in our community #TogetherWeBuild
