We are a start-up nonprofit dedicated to providing stable, safe and affordable housing for former inmates. We are in need of funding to buy an 8 bed home for men returning to society who need a place to get readjusted after being incarcerated.
Our goal is to raise enough money to first buy the home, have the first residents move in eventually pay rent to keep the mortgage paid. Additional funds will be used for maintenance, repairs, supplies and to pay staff to run the home.
Our founder Megan is a social worker with an advance degree (December 2023) in criminal justice. Megan was keenly aware of the high recidivism rate in Florida while working in a prison in 2021. She saw a need for programs for former offenders and founded Orlando Empowerment Corporation with the goal of providing stability and hope for the thousands of individuals who leave the Florida criminal justice system yearly.
