CHALLENGES…
oneROOF Youth Services relies heavily on community funding, and we need your assistance more now than ever. Due to the past repercussions of COVID-19 temporary closing of our community partners and local businesses coupled with our regular donors facing financial uncertainties, the housing crisis and the rebound of cancellations to 3rd party fundraising events leaves oneROOF Youth Services in a potentially precarious position.
oneROOF Youth Services would be most grateful to receive monetary donations as we attempt to sustain ourselves.
Food Donations:
Non-Perishables Needed: sugar, mayonnaise, peanut butter, jam, margarine, canned meat (tuna, ham, chicken), frozen or powdered juice, healthy snacks to go for the Outreach team to deliver to youth living on the streets
Beverages: Cases of Bottled Water, Powerade/Gaterade, Ensure, Boost, Drink/Juice Boxes, Peace Tea (Arizona)
Dairy Products Needed: Grocery gift cards to purchase milk, butter, cheese, yogourt, ice cream etc.
Clothing Donations - Please Note:
Although we are grateful for all donations we receive, we are not in need of clothing (unless it is listed on the above wish list), feminine menstrual products, bars of soap, toothpaste, and/or winter hats/ toques at this time.
