ELEVEN YEARS AGO, A GROUP OF VOLUNTEERS ORGANIZED A CLEANUP AT THE CORNER OF SAHARA AVENUE AND LAS VEGAS BOULEVARD ON MARCH 16, 2013. THE SERVICE PROJECT WAS HELD IN FRONT OF BONANZA GIFT SHOP, WHICH IS POPULARLY KNOWN AS THE "WORLD'S LARGEST GIFT SHOP". THIS OCCASION WOULD MARK THE BEGINNING FOR AN ORGANIZATION WHOSE GOAL WOULD BE TO TURN LAS VEGAS FROM "SIN CITY" TO "SHINE CITY".
​
IN A CITY OF LUSTFUL DESIRES, GREEDY TRANSACTIONS, AND SELF-INDULGENCES,
SHINE CITY PROJECT CHALLENGES OUR CITY'S CULTURE OF SELF-CENTEREDNESS TO BECOME ONE OF SELFLESSNESS. WE AIM TO BUILD LEADERS OF HEART AND CHARACTER WHO SHARE LOVE AND COMPASSION FOR OTHERS WHILE BEING STEWARDS FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. TOGETHER, WE WILL CREATE A MORE LOVING AND CARING COMMUNITY WHICH IN TURN CAN CREATE A MORE LOVING AND PEACEFUL WORLD. IF A CHANGE CAN HAPPEN IN LAS VEGAS,
A CHANGE CAN HAPPEN EVERYWHERE.
our INSPIRATION
Rev. Sun Myung Moon and
Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon
​
The inspiration for starting Shine City Project came from Rev. Sun Myung Moon, and his wife, Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon. The two have inspired and pioneered for a worldwide movement for peace across races, religions, and nationalities. By creating loving families and by living for the sake of others and for the world, world peace is achievable.
"Heaven is not what we are given but what we must build." – Rev. Sun Myung Moon
