LETTER FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
– Ceceli, transitional housing resident
Dear Friends,
Every day at York Street Project, we witness the strength, resilience, and courage of the individuals and families we serve. The impact of your donation stretches beyond the need for food and shelter, it provides dignity and hope to women, children and families.
Your support has been instrumental in creating a community where hope thrives and lives are transformed. As a partner, we are reaching out to you now to make a donation to help us achieve our mission to serve women, children, and families in need.
Life is harder than it was five years ago. Everything is more expensive. Our children are struggling to regain knowledge lost during the pandemic. There is a feeling of uncertainty and anxiety in the world. Now imagine living with that baseline, and then it’s compounded by the fact that you don’t know where you and your children will sleep tonight.

This is a complex problem that requires a holistic approach to solve it. York Street Project understands what it takes to move a family from homelessness to wholeness. It takes essential services like safe housing, a dedicated case manager to help navigate a family’s needs, mental and physical health support, and job readiness training to help gain meaningful work and break the cycle of poverty. York Street Project has created a nurturing environment where individuals and families can build sustainable futures and gain independence. Your partnership makes this transformation possible.
This year, we have helped over 300 individuals escape the grips of trauma, homelessness, and poverty. Our comprehensive programs and services have helped parents gain employment and find stability for themselves and their families. York Street Project is a true sanctuary for those who need us.

Let us work hand in hand to lift each other up and build a world where every family has access to housing, food, and safety. Your support can make that vision a reality today.
