Providing HOPE, Building Futures, Strengthening our Community!

For many of us, summer is a season we look forward to cabin weekends, traveling, and gathering with friends and family. Unfortunately, for the young people walking through our doors, summer can be filled with uncertainty. Many don’t know where their next meal will come from, where they will sleep each night, or if there’s anyone they can turn to for support.

This is where HOPE 4 Youth (H4Y) steps in. We provide youth ages 16-24 with basic needs, including meals, groceries, hygiene items, clothing, showers, laundry, and a safe place where they are met with dignity and understanding. Youth also have the opportunity to engage in one-on-one case management focused on employment, housing, education, mental health, and overall well-being support.

So far in 2026, youth visits to our H4Y Center have increased by 24% compared to 2025. The need is real and continues to grow. Myer’s story below shows how your support helps provide HOPE, build FUTURES, and strengthen our COMMUNITY, one young life at a time.
