Chrysalis and ANEW Collaborate to Help L.A.'s Homeless and Unemployed
With the help of ANEW, Chrysalis can focus its resources on its good work in the community.
Los Angeles has the unfortunate distinction of the nation's largest homeless population, estimated at 58,000. Chrysalis helps people re-enter the job market with training and referrals. As Chrysalis President & CEO Mark Loranger points out, having a job is the most important step in getting a life back in order.
We are doing what’s right.
ANEW educates by raising awareness about the issues regarding landfill and construction & demolition waste, a primary component of the waste stream. Our practice of Surplus Stewardship® diverts items from landfill and back to the community. Surplus Stewardship® furthers corporate citizenship, social responsibility and environmental sustainability. Our Sponsors enable us to continue doing our good work!
SPONSOR:
“Nearly ten years ago, Knoll and ANEW came together to form Full Circle, which was an industry first. Not only did we establish new industry standards for environmental responsibility, we made a very positive impact on major corporations in North America. We also made an impact on the lives of many of the recipients of the products that would normally go to a landfill; they ended up enhancing people’s lives. It’s been a wonderful partnership, and we look forward to the future.”
