OUR COMMUNITY
The shared story of our Northern Nevada experience defines us all. Its a story of belonging, and transformation, and giving back. Here’s how we’re building up the places we call home.

A simple act of kindness along the I-80 highway.
A homeless encampment along the I-80 highway near the Truckee River was plagued by years of neglect and piles of trash and debris. After a call from Karma Box founder, Grant Denton, we realized we could make a difference.
We teamed up with Junk King and Lifestyle Homes for a heartfelt day of volunteer effort. Four 14-yard dumpsters of trash were ultimately removed, making for a safer space and brightening spirits for some of Reno’s most vulnerable.
