T
his year at Virgin Valley High School (VVHS), the staff got involved in Project 150, which has been helping Clark County school district’s homeless and students who have been identified as low economic status. Project 150, a 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization in Nevada, was founded in December 2011, when the founders heard a news story of 150 homeless high school students at Rancho High School that were in need of support over Christmas break. Project 150 provides support and services to homeless, displaced, and disadvantaged high school students so they can remain in school, graduate, and build a bright future. High school is tough enough without having to worry about where you are going to sleep at night, where your next meal is coming from, and how you will pay for clothing, hygiene items, and school supplies. Project 150 was created out of our community’s desire to help these students. With the help of Brooke’s Good Deeds we receive deliveries from Vegas weekly. | |VIEW VIEWON ONMAGAZINE MAGAZINE| |May/June May/June 2020 2020
