spearheads Project
H.O.M.E.
Interior Decorating is a powerful instrument that has
provided much inspiration and happiness to countless lives. Through
decorating, the mood of a room can transform from dreary and desperate
to hopeful and heartwarming instantly.
And that is the mission of Project H.O.M.E.:
To create environments that add joy, comfort, peace, and excitement to
the lives of people in unfortunate circumstances. From women’s shelters
to children’s hospitals, to individual families experiencing hardship,
interior decorators around the country are donating their time and
talent to help people in need.
Support the members of DANA in their quest to provide a shining
light to those in turmoil. DANA’s decorators are enhancing the quality
of lives for many people by creating order, harmony, and beauty at a
time when their worlds are cold and chaotic.
DANA is proud to announce three exciting projects that typify the
spirit of Project H.O.M.E.
