In 2008, the Decorators Alliance of North America (DANA) chose the Design Scheme Interiors, LLC, the Ward 7 Arts Collaborative in Washington, DC and the Unity Health Care Children's Key Corner Project, East of the River Clinic in Washington, DC as one of three Project H.O.M.E. (Helping Others, Opening Doors, Making over Lives, Empowering People) pilot programs.
Design Scheme Interiors, LLC provided pro bono design services of a new children's reading corner and patient reception area at Unity Health Care East of the River facility in NE Washington, DC. IKEA College Park, Maryland donated children's furniture, Eco-Green Living Store in Washington, DC donated up to 10 gallons of Yolo Colorhouse low-VOC paint products and City Interests, a private real estate developer in Washington, DC, made a financial contribution to support the project.
