Family Renew Community received $15,000 from Hope Florida after being recognized by Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis as an outstanding Florida nonprofit on Sept. 5.
The $15,000 award will be matched by the Walmart Foundation, according to a news release. The recognition took place during the Hope Florida symposium at JW Marriott Grand Lakes.
Hope Florida is an initiative spearheaded by DeSantis that uses "hope navigators" to guide Floridians to economic self-sufficiency by focusing on community collaboration between the private sector, faith-based community, nonprofits, and government entities, the news release states.
Family Renew Community has been helping families with children lift themselves out of homelessness in Volusia County since 1989.
