The Problem:
DIMINISHED BUILDINGS
Many charity buildings and infrastructure are in poor condition, diminishing non-profits’ ability to deliver important social services, to be innovative, and respond to changing needs of vulnerable populations.
The Solution:
RADICAL RENOVATIONS
HeroWork consults, designs, and completes transformative renovations of charity buildings by mobilizing the community through Radical Renovation events.
