💙We want to give A HUGE SHOUTOUT and THANK YOU to Ross Dress for Less! 🎉

During a recent "round-up" event at our local Ross store, our generous community members and partners donated almost $3,000 toward youth and young adults throughout Klamath County.

This donation will go toward our program expenses at:

🏠 My Friend's Place Youth Shelter
🌱 Transitional Living Program (TLP)
👶 Maternity Group Home (MGH)

These funds help provide safe housing, basic necessities, life skills development, case management, and supportive services that empower youth and young families to build stable, successful futures.

Every dollar invested in our programs creates opportunities for young people facing homelessness, instability, and difficult life circumstances. Partnerships like this remind us that when businesses and communities come together, we can make a lasting difference in the lives of local youth.

Thank you, Ross, for believing in our mission and helping us provide hope, support, and opportunity to those who need it most. 💙
