The youth are our today and tomorrow
WE WILL ACHIEVE THIS BY
Travelling the U.K. working in local communities handing out food packages to ALL homeless but prioritising younger adults.
Creating workshops to help young people to find jobs.
Giving out clothing and footware
Paying for hostel accommodation stays.
All within the budget of what we raise, being a very small Community Interest Program, this target is a big one, but a task we believe is very achievable through the help of people like yourself.
Thank you for your support!
