We exist to address and lift up the underserved in our community.

Living Spaces and Love, Inc. seeks to address the lack of services and increased risk of homelessness for our community’s most vulnerable residents, including:

  • Displaced single women with children
  • Women who have been widowed
  • Fatherless children
  • Survivors of domestic abuse
  • Displaced LGBTQ teenagers

Our mission is to provide furniture, creature comforts, and when available, temporary housing to those who are displaced due to violence, unavoidable hardship, or sexual orientation. We uplift the community by providing support to some of our most vulnerable residents.

Our Founder’s Story

Our founder, Linia White, deeply understands the need for an organization like Living Spaces and Love. Realized alongside her wife of seven years, Linia has personally experienced the trials and tribulations that come with survival, proper mental health, and navigating a same-sex relationship as a woman.

Even as an adult, survival and stability can be difficult. Lack of family support as an adolescent due to identifying as an LGBTQ person can lead to a rocky road to stability. School, career, and housing are no longer a guarantee and can suddenly seem unmanageable. This goes for anyone who has been left without a support system—whether you are a single mother, widowed person, or a survivor of domestic abuse.
