Sulzbacher Center receives $1M to fund job training in Jacksonville
The Sulzbacher center just received a $1 million dollar donation to help people living in homelessness receive training to find a job. It’s part of Sulzbacher’s new Enterprise Village, which will provide 100 apartments to help men who do not have permanent homes.
Lauren Baker joined News4jax anchor Jennifer Waugh on News4JAX+ at 10 a.m. to explain why she and her husband made the donation along with Cindy Funkhouser, CEO of Sulzbacher, who detailed how the money will be used.
