Mission Statement
We provide help to homeless teens and those in need one life at a time.
Description
We are a non-for-profit organization that runs a teen drop in center where our homeless teens can have a safe environment to shower, get a hot meal, wash clothes if needed, get some clean clothing from our clothing closet, do homework, and even have some fun recreational time. This center right now is open 2 days a week from 3 pm - 8 pm with our goal within a year to be 4 days a week. In addition, we have monthly clothing distribution events where we distribute clothing to our homeless teens and those in need. We offer clothing items, a pair of shoes, coat, gloves, hats, hygiene kit, and a meal. These distributions happen one Saturday out of every month either at our Teen Drop in Location or at different areas and community centers throughout our community.
