Community leaders and partners of Harvest House on Tuesday revealed the renovated housing complex at the 2700 block of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Way in Sarasota.
Last fall Harvest House was awarded a $50,000 grant from the William G. and Marie Selby Foundation. Over the next week, that $50,000 grant will be put to use as local, family owned and run, Florida Fence works to install over 2,000 feet of white, vinyl picket fence at the Family Village.

As we look to provide for our community, Bank of America’s investment in our organization will enable us to continue performing our vital work and strengthen Sarasota County.
Harvest House has been selected to receive an ESO (Engaging – System Centric – Outcomes) Award, a one-time gift of $20,000 from The Patterson Foundation.
