Why Should YOU help?

Whether or not you live in St. Joseph County of Indiana you can still help end youth homelessness! I became a personal Advocate for YSB when I was 13 years old. Brady (From YSB's street outreach) became a trusting good friend of mine as I was helping "hit the streets"  since middle school. I am now 27! 

I did not have a rough life growing up, but chose not to listen to my parents and took the wrong path in life (as do many young kids). I caught myself in a very, very, bad situation- while being young and pregnant. When I thought I had no one else to turn to, I leaned on YSB. 

I couldn't even get section 8 housing. I was in such a bad spot, that I was sleeping house to house. Brady referred me to the Young Moms' program with YSB and before I knew it, I was delivering my baby, and coming back to my own home. Without YSB, I would not have a place to raise my child, I would have never been dug out of the hole I was in, and I would have never been able to be the wise, tough, single mother, and young homeowner I am today! 

I thank YSB for never giving up hope, hitting the streets and coming to us. YSB is protecting the young people who have no one else! They are protecting safety, lives, and spirits all throughout St. Joseph County!! 

You will be surprised by the level of care that others in the world have for you, even when they do not know you! 

I am fundraising for the folks who have no one else or lack of care in their lives. Not one person in this world is perfect, and the lives of these young men, women, and children deserve to hear it! They do not have to live everyday in fear!  Please help Support YSB to end youth homelessness, every bit helps make a difference in the life of others.
