St. Elizabeth Shelter |

Santa Fe, New
Mexico / $15,000 |

St. Elizabeth has been meeting
the needs of homeless
individuals for 30 years.
Casa Familia provides a
dedicated emergency shelter with
10 beds for homeless single
women and eight rooms for
families with children along
with a full range supportive
services. This year we
determined the need to upgrade
security for guests by
constructing a new public
entrance, enhance case
management by reconfiguring
current office space to provide
more privacy/confidentiality, as
well as create more
family-centered space indoors
and outdoors for interaction and
play. |

Soulful Presence |

Santa Fe, New Mexico / $5,000 |
Traveling for
individuals with

challenging and can be
dangerous. Physical
limitations make it
extremely difficult for
people to find necessary
relief areas for their
loyal canine companions.
Soulful Presence is
proposing to meet this
need by creating an
innovative, no-cost app
that will accessible via
Smart phone to assist an
individual with a
disability to safely
locate the service dog
relief areas at every
airport throughout the
United States. |
