Second Heart Homes Awarded $10,000

May 20, 2022 – Sarasota

Second Heart Homes, Inc. has been awarded a $10,000 capacity-building grant from the Community Foundation of Sarasota County. The grant will support website and social media upgrades and maintenance for the two-year-old nonprofit. 

“Our humble online presence has driven some degree of awareness and support for our mission to get homeless adults with mental health issues off the streets and into self-sufficiency,” said Megan Howell, founder and executive director for Second Heart Homes.

“However, the Community Foundation’s grant will provide a more robust, cost-effective online solution that will help us fundraise more effectively, enhance our communication and educational efforts, and better connect with clients, partners, staff and volunteers. We’re growing rapidly and we’re deeply grateful for the size and timing of this grant in helping us to expand our impact and accomplish our goals,” Howell said.
