In this issue: Adopt-A-Class supply drive is underway, and registration deadline approaches for Golfing for Youth.
Help Youth In and Out of the Classroom
It’s time for our 2025 Adopt-A-Class supplies drive! Help us equip thousands of children with the tools they need for a successful school year—both inside and outside of the classroom. Supplies benefit children, youth and families in Youth In Need’s early childhood education, youth residential, foster care case management, counseling and street outreach programs.
Here’s how you can help:
- Purchase items directly from Youth In Need’s Amazon wish list.
- Collect items from the general Adopt-A-Class wish list.
- Make a 100% tax-deductible cash donation on our website and let us do the shopping for things like backpacks, art supplies, hygiene items and more.
Thank you for your support and generosity. Let’s make an impact this school year!
