Welcome Message
Introduction
Shine On Humanity is honored to have the encouragement and support
of the City regarding the West Side Empowerment Zone. After 2 years of
discussions on what Port Arthur might need and how Shine can be of
assistance, we have made huge strides to bring the West Side some much
needed love and support.
Through the Christmas Meal Giveaways that we have sponsored for three
years, our eyes and hearts have opened to the needs of the citizens.
It is not that Port Arthur isn't already a wonderful place to live, it is more
that the once thriving West Side needs a refreshing boost of
beautification and economical growth for the future generation.

together to help rebuild, restore and revitalize global

businesses along with the help of our donors and volunteers to
provide aid during and after natural disasters.

Mission
To clean up, beautify and create an economically positive
growth for the West Side.
We are here to provide our resources and services to the City
of Port Arthur and the citizens through our non-profit partners
and business relationships. Working together, unselfishly and
with the intent to better the lives of the community.
The Proposal
West Side Empowerment Zone
In order to make changes, we must first study the
problems and issues as to not make the same mistakes
and know how to move forward and make things
better.
Feasibility Study
Shine On Humanity will not be doing this project alone.
Alongside with the City of Port Arthur, we will facilitate
the project by pulling together our resources and calling
on or business relationships. We will start the process to
access grant funds and call upon the citizens to
volunteer their expertise of knowledge, skills and time.
As a Community, the West Side Empowerment Zone will
transform many lives.
Community Involvement
With the completion of the feasibility study, we
will then be able to work on infrastructure,
environmental protection and start on affordable
housing, bring in commercial businesses and
develop strong youth sports programs.
