Micro Shelter Initiative
Ozark Opportunities Inc. is working with local youth groups in an effort to erradicate homlessness in the North Arkansas area. Youth groups from Boone county will be given the chance to apply for a grant from Ozark Opportunities Inc. to construct a micro shelter that can house a family of 3 individuals in need!
Through the support of several local partners who have generously donated their funds or resources and the time and effort of Ozark Opportunities and the youth groups involved we hope to have several micro-shelters in the counties where they are most needed by the middle of 2020.
Please contact Ben Glover @ (870) 741-2089 with any questions or for additional information on how to apply.
