A time for thanks and giving

21st of November 2011

Every young person deserves shelter, food, family and love. Every child needs them. “Rebecca” is one of hundreds of young people who come to us fleeing from abuse. I am happy to say that we have offered her a safe home during Thanksgiving, and I want to thank you for being part of her unseen support network.

There are literally thousands of young people like Rebecca who need the services provided by Sasha Bruce Youthwork. And I can tell you that, by the time these young people reach us, they have little more than the clothes on their backs and are often burdened by violent and traumatic experiences at home and on the streets.

I am asking you to help these young people develop into self-reliant young adults by clicking here. Your tax-deductible gift is shelter, guidance, education, college preparation, afterschool activities and counseling. For our youth, it is a chance to transform life into a positive and productive experience.

Thank you for opening your heart and giving our kids the opportunity to be safe and to develop the skills that will lead them towards self-reliance. It is a way to change the world…one person at a time.

Happy Thanksgiving,

Deborah Shore, Executive Director
