Donations: Monetary donations are accepted
at Human, Youth, and Senior Services to assist residents facing financial hardships. These funds can make a significant difference in the lives
of individuals and families struggling to meet essential needs. For many, challenges such as rent, energy bills, and insurance premiums can create overwhelming stress, and support in these areas can help prevent eviction or loss of vital services. Additionally, contributions aid those who have difficulty affording necessary prescriptions or fresh food, ensuring that everyone has access to basic health and nutrition. Transportation costs can also be a significant hurdle for residents who rely on public transit or need to maintain mobility for work, medical appointments, or essential errands. By donating, you help provide a lifeline for those experiencing tough times, enabling them to regain stability and work towards a more secure future. Every contribution, no matter the size, is valuable and helps cultivate a supportive community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Thank you for considering making a donation to help your neighbors in need!
Monetary donations can be dropped off or mailed to: Human, Youth, & Senior Services
