Could you survive a day in the life of someone in the crisis of poverty?
The Poverty Escape Room encourages participants to experience barriers, stressors, and realities faced daily by people living in the crisis of poverty. Based on real experiences in the Rapid City community, our Poverty Escape Room offers you a vivid opportunity to become a more compassionate neighbor.
We at the John T. Vucurevich Foundation know grantmaking is only part of the solution. The need for community awareness underlines all the important work done by our grantees. We stand alongside our grantees by sharing the realities faced by low-income families in our community.
Life as a low-income family is an abstract concept for some and a harsh reality for others. Through our outreach activities, we invite people from all sectors to better understand view our community through a different lens, one that considers the barriers our low-income families face and how we can all collaborate on solutions.
