Newport Beach, CA, April 4, 2017–HomeAid America, a nonprofit that provides housing to organizations helping the homeless throughout the country, has been selected to receive a $50,000 donation from Mohawk Industries.

HomeAid America was awarded a grant to oversee its programs, which 1) build housing and other facilities for homelessness service providers and 2) undertake community outreach activities to provide facility renovation or operational assistance for the programs of these service providers.

Over 3.5 million people experience homelessness in the U.S. each year, including young families without a financial safety net, victims of domestic violence, youth aging out of the foster system and veterans coming home from war. The charities HomeAid builds for provide support services—such as education and job-skills training, financial counseling and both physical and emotional support—that help residents move toward self-sufficiency.
