Our agency, Youth Resources Niagara, is a nonprofit, multi-faceted agency consisting of three residential homes as well as a variety of community-based programs. Every year Youth Resources Niagara provides services for over 160 youths in our community who are homeless; have come into contact with the legal system or have been placed in FACS care. We provide accommodations, rehabilitative and supportive programming, and mentoring to promote personal growth, change, and accountability to empower youth to reach their full potential. These are some of our community’s highest-risk youth.
Our youth come from a variety of backgrounds with a multitude of needs that require attention. The youth we support often come to us with a history of neglect and abuse; unaddressed mental health issues; are homeless and have little to no supports in the community.
This holiday season, we are asking for monetary donations that will go towards gifts for each youth so they can enjoy opening presents on Christmas morning.
Hoping to provide each of our 25 kids with Christmas gifts valued up to $250.00. Any amount is helpful and will make a difference in the children’s lives and help bring more meaning to Christmas. We appreciate your support and wish you a very happy & healthy holiday season!
