Staircase Youth Services Mason County

01/09/2026

A huge thank-you to the Ludington Area Jaycees for their mini grant supporting at-risk youth in Mason County!
This funding helps create more opportunities for family time and positive activities—making a real difference for local families. We truly appreciate your support!

Today, we are excited to highlight one of the recipients of our Major Grant Program, made possible by the fantastic support of our customers at Ludington Jaycees Mini Golf—a fun and easy way to give back to the community! Our recipient of $1,000 is Staircase Youth Services Mason County , which mentors and addresses homelessness across Mason, Lake, and Oceana counties.
Grant funds will also support family activity nights, including one event hosted at the Ludington Jaycees Mini Golf Course and Patio during the summer of 2026. We are proud to support the impactful work Staircase Youth Services does for local youth and families.

This season reminds us that everyone deserves a little love, support, and a chance to grow — even the Grinch. 💚

🌟 Help Support Our Youth! 🌟

We’re excited to share that our wishes have been posted through the Mason County Community Foundation! 💙

We’re currently seeking general household items to support the youth we serve — simple things that help make a house feel like a home. 🏡

In addition, we’re hoping to raise funds for sensory kits designed to help our youth with emotional regulation, focus, and comfort. These kits make a big difference in creating calm, supportive spaces for our kids. 💫

If you’d like to help, please visit our wishes on the Mason County Community Foundation’s page or reach out to us directly. Every donation — big or small — helps meet real needs and shows our youth that their community cares. ❤️

Thank you for helping us make a difference, one small act of kindness at a time! 🙏
