FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – In July, Broward House plans to open its twelfth facility. After six months and over $200,000 of renovations, the newest facility will be open in Sailboat Bend.
The project has 2 2-bedroom units and 7 1-bedroom units that will house individuals and families living with HIV/AIDS. These units are made affordable through a subsidy from HOPWA (Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS/HIV).
The new housing facility was made possible through a recent grant from Doug Greene of the Green Family Foundation, which helps with the landscaping of the property. Broward House is looking for other individuals, corporations and foundations to help the project come to fruition. They are also looking for help with painting the outside of the building and make other minor touches throughout the property.
One of the units has already been adopted by the Samuel and Hannah Holzman Trust. A plaque outside will be hung recognizing and thanking them for their generosity.
