The Healthy Room Project
We aim to improve the well-being of underprivileged, inner-city children. Dangerous living conditions and a lack of safe spaces harm their development. We will do this by creating safe, secure, comfortable, and personalized bedrooms.
Community members, local law enforcement, and volunteers unite to renovate the children's bedrooms in a day. Each child receives a new bed, desk, dresser, school supplies, lamp, bedding, freshly painted room, and other basic essentials.
Our mission is to bridge the gap between police officers and the communities they serve by making a tangible impact on the development of at-risk youth. Instead of merely creating temporary solutions, we sought a sustainable approach that works from within. Thus, The Healthy Room Project was born. By creating clean. Safe supportive environments, such as a child’s bedroom, we aim to enhance well-being from the inside out, all in partnership with law enforcement.
