Through LifeWorks Home Improvement Challenge (HIC), corporate and community teams partner with a decorator to design the space of a LifeWorks client. LifeWorks clients live in our Supportive Housing – a program offering subsidized housing to kids who need a “getting on your feet period.” LifeWorks clients are former foster care children, former homeless youth and teen parents who may have never before received the help they need for a fresh start.
HIC is an exciting and competitive team building exercise with valuable marketing benefits for sponsors and designers. LifeWorks solicits corporate teams to compete as they invest one weekday upgrading one of the Supportive Housing apartments with local professional designers to ensure dramatic makeovers.
