HomeAid Los Angeles/Ventura, the leading national non-profit provider of housing for homeless people, hosted Project Playhouse, a fundraising event where builders created exotic playhouses. Three of this year’s top entries are currently on display at ICE at Santa Monica and available for auction. Tickets ($2) to win a playhouse are available everyday through January 19, when three winners will be drawn. Funds raised will benefit HomeAid Los Angeles/Ventura’s housing development program.
