Wellnest President & CEO Charlene Dimas-Peinado is proud to be a speaker at the inaugural SoLa Impact, "In My Dream Backyard" symposium on Wednesday, September 18, 2024, at The Beehive in Los Angeles. We invite you to join Wellnest and the brightest minds, mission-aligned investors, and high-impact players in shaping a future for LA rooted in inclusivity, affordability, and sustainability. This event aims to address the critical shortfall of affordable housing in LA, focusing on empowering low-income Black and brown communities. Together, we strive to change the narrative that “LA is difficult to build in” and attract significant institutional capital to make a real difference. Save the date and be part of creating the Dream Backyard of Los Angeles! #SoLaImpact #AffordableHousing #EmpowerCommunities #Sustainability #Wellnest
