SUPPORT SUDDEN NEEDS with FRIEND IN NEED LIST

SUPPORT OUR YOUTH AND FAMILIES IN A TANGIBLE AND MEANINGFUL WAY.

When a young person or family in our programs has an urgent need that can be met through in-kind donations, we send this to the Friend in Need list.

Why is this important?

More than 90% of youth and families served by Youth Villages Oregon live at or below the federal poverty line. By joining the Oregon Friend in Need email list, you become part of a crucial safety net for young people. Life can take unexpected turns, and when a crisis hits, it can be hard to know where to look for help and, even harder, how to focus on therapeutic work. This network has provided needed technology, gas cards, groceries, baby clothes, referrals to community resources and more, keeping youth and families secure while we continue to provide excellent services and mental health support.

Contact Shauna.Lugar@youthvillages.org or call 503-675-2256 to join the list.
