About this non-profit:

Richmond, Virginia is experiencing a renaissance. Currently in a period of urban renewal, the community has banded together to bring in new business, people and publicity to the city and surrounding areas. Often, when large cities experience urban renewal, property taxes and cost of living increase dramatically. ElderHomes is a small, Richmond-based nonprofit dedicated to improving the housing conditions of the low income and low income elderly and disabled-a community often marginalized in American culture-especially in cities that experience urban renewal. The Visionaries explores the world of this passionate and dedicated nonprofit committed to improving the lives of this disadvantaged communities.
