Project 150 collaborates with many organizations in our community who share our mission of providing basic needs to homeless, displaced and disadvantaged high school students.
Project 150 strives to provide the basic needs to the valley's homeless, displaced and disadvantaged high school students in the on-going struggle to make sure these kids get their diploma and have a better chance at succeeding in life.
Project 150 is a 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization that was organized in December, 2011 when the founders heard about 150 homeless high school students at Rancho High School in Las Vegas that were in need of support over the Christmas Break. The effort has expanded to helping over 2,500 in 45 high schools when it was understood that the problems these students faced were prevalent across the valley.
We provide assistance to homeless high school students that starts with food and clothing.
