WHOSE HELP IS REQUIRED
AdultHOW IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
This impacts the youth incredibly! Warm welcomes to a new home is something most of our youth don't experience. These Welcome Home Kits set the stage for their journey to growth. You are making an impact not only for the now but for their future.
Many of our youth come to our homes with nothing but a backpack. Providing everyday items are essential for our youth.
