Lloyd Jones Gifts $100K to Combat Homelessness in Orlando

Miami, FL-based Lloyd Jones, LLC, a real estate investment, development and management firm specializing in multifamily and senior housing, has donated $100,000 to Shelters to Shutters. The non-profit provides talent for the multifamily real estate industry while transitioning individuals and families from homelessness to economic self-sufficiency.

“As the demand for rental housing continues to rise in many U.S. markets, so does the need for qualified candidates to work in the property management industry,” said Chris Finlay, Lloyd Jones CEO. “We look forward to working with Shelters to Shutters to find new talent to meet this growing demand for our industry while simultaneously changing lives for the better.”

S2S partners with apartment management companies to place people experiencing situational homelessness in on-site, entry-level jobs and provide them with housing at the same communities where they work. Each participant is provided with career mentoring and access to support services to ensure a successful long-term transition.
