Crime Scene Solutions receives free rent in Henderson Business Resource Center

HENDERSON, Nev. – The Henderson Chamber of Commerce Foundation has awarded Crime Scene Solutions, a minority- and woman-owned business, free rent for one year in the Henderson Business Resource Center located at 112 S. Water St. in Downtown Henderson. MGM Resorts International is the sponsor for the grant, and, in addition, the Henderson Chamber of Commerce provided an annual membership.

Crime Scene Solutions was selected from minority- and/or woman-owned business applicants who have owned their business less than two years. Qualifications for certified, woman-owned business include 51percent ownership and control by at least one woman who manages the day-to-day operations and makes long-term decisions on the business’ behalf and a United States Citizen.

Crime Scene Solutions were chosen by a selection committee, which included members from MGM Resorts International, Wells Fargo and the Henderson Chamber of Commerce Foundation. Crime Scene Solutions specializes in the cleaning of hoarding cases and chemical- and blood-contaminated areas. It also performs sanitation procedures for former drug laboratories.

Blanca Powell, owner of Crime Scene Solutions, previously operated out of her home and is happy to have been granted an office for her business.

“I don’t know if I can say how grateful I am to the MGM,” she said. “It’s not easy being a businesswoman. I’m very blessed to be in business.”

The Henderson Chamber of Commerce Foundation (HCCF) is a nonprofit corporation organized to manage and distribute funds and resources to further the development of the community through activities that are exclusively charitable, scientific, or educational. The Foundation is responsible for the creation and success of both the Henderson Business Resource Center (a business incubator), Leadership Henderson, I CAN BE (Integrating Career Academics by Networking Business and Education), HCCF Community Cares, HCCF Golf Tournament and Co-Operate on Water, a co-working space.
