Mosaic House Receives Support from The Roy and Christine Sturgis Charitable and Educational Trust

Mosaic Family Services has received a $30,000 grant from The Roy and Christine Sturgis Charitable and Educational Trust. This generous grant will support Mosaic House, which provides comprehensive, holistic services to immigrant women and children who have experienced domestic violence or human trafficking.

The Roy and Christine Sturgis Charitable and Educational Trust supports organizations that assist with education, health, arts and culture, science, relief of human suffering, and youth and social services. The Trust focuses its philanthropy in the state of Arkansas, and in Dallas County, Texas.

Part of this funding from the trust will be used to purchase new bunk beds, coffee tables, and living room chairs for each of the apartment units at the Mosaic House shelter facility. The increased awareness of our services in the Dallas area has led to a rapidly-growing number of victims served by Mosaic House. The number of residents served increased by approximately 27% in the past year. This growth has led to increased traffic at the shelter and high wear-and-tear on the furniture in each unit. Funding from the Sturgis Charitable and Educational Trust help us meet the high demand for shelter services and provide brand new furniture for residents.

Thank you to the Roy and Christine Sturgis Charitable and Educational Trust for your support!

The Hillcrest Foundation Provides New A/C Units and Water Heater for Mosaic House

Mosaic Family Services received a $25,000 grant from The Hillcrest Foundation to support our shelter Mosaic House. This funding will be used to purchase new air conditioning units and a new water heater for the shelter facility.


The Hillcrest Foundation was created with the following purposes: the relief of poverty, the advancement of education, and the promotion of health in the state of Texas. Approximately 90% of grant funds are paid to organizations in North Texas, with emphasis on charitable services in the Dallas area.

The Hillcrest Foundation grant is fulfilling a huge need at Mosaic House, as both the water and air conditioning units are nearly two decades old. Replacing the air conditioning system will increase the energy efficiency of the shelter, especially during the hot summer months, and will improve the quality of life for residents.

Thank you to the Hillcrest Foundation!
