Caring Causes: Oasis Alliance

In July 2018, Three Washington, D.C. area interior design professionals began applying their passion and skills to transform living spaces into a refuge for healing in the Northern Virginia, District of Columbia and Maryland communities. We collected quality and gently used furniture, décor, and household items from the generosity of community business leaders, churches, and individuals. The first installation was for a single parent and child who were survivors of domestic violence and transitioning from a shelter to a home of their own. O.A. designers curated a personalized living space, which gave them peace of mind and encouragement. The family attributed much of their success in healing to the services and care that was provided to them by The Oasis Alliance just a few years ago. To date, they’ve completed 70+ room designs; from studio basement apartments, townhomes, single family homes, multiple room shelters, and commercial properties all across the District - Maryland - Virginia area. Oasis Alliance has graciously received local recognition, acknowledgments, and awards for their work. Their mission remains the same: To brightens the lives of trauma survivors by co-designing personalized spaces that encourage and support recovery, growth, and mental well-being. Most people believe that interior design is a luxury. They believe that interior design is an underutilized tool to empower, encourage and resurrect people at their lowest point. When we live in personalized spaces that affirm our humanity, we feel important—a major first step in moving past trauma and loss.
