HomeAid Houston staff and board members hosted the dedication of a HomeAid Care project for the Santa Maria Hostel lobby and intake area.

Joining HomeAid were builder captain Leslie King with Greymark Constructi­on and her staff; David Ruiz, Houston marketing manager, Bank of America; Santa Maria’s CEO, Nadine Scamp; and vendors and trades who donated materials and services for the project’s completion.

“We were honored to be part of a team that created a fresh environmen­t for the families residing at the agency,” said King. “New clients coming through those doors will feel welcome and inspired to reach new heights as they work toward a better life.”

The vendors and trades who helped make this Care project possible included: The Detering Company, MS Internatio­nal Stone, Danny Salinas with Texas Brand Custom Flooring, Bolen Electric, Sherwin-Williams Paint Co. and Jorge Arreloa of Greymark Constructi­on.

Clients progress toward achieving improved mental and physical health, family functionin­g and economic stability that supports a drug and violence-free lifestyle. Through its services, clients complete substance abuse treatment, acquire parenting skills, develop job readiness skills, set and attain educationa­l and employment goals, gain critical life skills, get referrals and informatio­n on resources and obtain permanent housing.

Since 2003, HomeAid Houston has built projects with values totaling $11.6 million, provided 423 beds and enabled agencies to provide days and nights of care for 22,124 homeless men, women, children and veterans.
