The Nevada Rural Housing Authority was recognized in April by the National Association of Local Housing Finance Agencies during its annual conference in San Francisco. NRHA received an award for excellence in the Multifamily category in recognition of the Richards Crossing Supportive Housing project in Carson City. In 2016, NRHA was honored in recognition of the Winnemucca Senior Campus Project in the same category.
In recognition of 76 years of giving help and hope to our community, Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada celebrated its seventh annual Heart of Hope Luncheon fundraiser in April at Red Rock Casino. The event placed a special awareness on Meals on Wheels, a program Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada has administered in Las Vegas since 1975. This year’s recipients of the Heart of Hope Award were Thomas Spiegel Family Foundation and MGM Resorts Foundation.
