Our Place Society has joined with artist Elfrida Schragen to recognize some of the region’s most remarkable young people. The Admired Youth exhibit has been set up in the Hillside Shopping Centre. . .
Other work involves constructing additional shelter-bed spaces, common-area updates and general building maintenance. Due to the technical nature and size of the renovation, materials alone for the project are estimated to cost upwards of $200,000, double the typical renovation cost taken on by the organization. The renovation does not include the cost of replacing kitchen fixtures and appliances, which will be borne by the Salvation Army. HeroWork partners with up to 200 companies and more than 700 volunteers to work on infrastructure updates needed by non-profit organizations in what they call Radical Renovation projects. In the past decade, the group has completed $1 million of renovations for non-profits in the region.
