Katelyn's Fundraiser for The Link!

Help me raise $1,000 for youth and young families at The Link!

I am so proud to have spent the last four years working at The Link. I first started as the HR Generalist, moved into a HR Manager role, and most recently, have stepped in as the HR Director. Every day, I see the dedication and heart of our staff and the courage of the youth we serve. We do whatever it takes to support young people in our community.

The Link provides housing and critical support services to youth experiencing homelessness, sexual exploitation, and involvement in the juvenile justice system. Each year, we serve around 2,000 youth and young families through our three divisions: Housing & Homeless Services, Safe Harbor, and Youth Advocacy.

With federal funding cuts to so many programs, the essential services so many young people rely on are at risk. Now more than ever, our community needs to come together to ensure youth have access to the services our youth need.

Your support has real impact:

• $25 provides a bus pass so a young person can get to work or reach a safe place to stay

• $50 provides basic-needs kits that our Street Outreach team distributes while helping youth find safety

• $100 funds one night of housing and intensive services for a youth or family transitioning out of homelessness or exploitation

• $250 provides a month of paid leadership opportunities for young people on The Link’s Youth Advisory Committees

• $500 gives a young person one-on-one support to stay in school and work toward graduation

• $1,000 helps a young parent exiting homelessness secure a security deposit for stable housing

At The Link, we walk alongside young people as they heal from trauma, pursue education, build meaningful careers, and create healthy futures. Every donation truly makes a difference.
