Jelena's Fundraiser for The Link

Dear Friends and Family,

I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the fall colors. 

Please join me again in supporting The Link on Give to the Max Day! 

I am grateful to be part of an amazing team that does the most impactful work with young people in our community. Join me in investing in the safety, stability, and bright futures of Twin Cities youth! 

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 3 divisions: Housing and Homeless Services, Safe Harbor, and Youth Advocacy. 

Your donations to The Link on Give to the Max Day help ensure youth across all our programs can access the resources they need and the opportunities they deserve.  

 Every dollar makes a difference! For example...

• $25 helps provide a bus pass so a young person can get to work or a safe place to stay 
• $50 helps provide basic needs kits that Street Outreach workers distribute to youth on the streets while helping them find safety
• $100 helps provide a night of housing and intensive services to a youth or family transitioning out of homelessness or exploitation
• $250 helps provide one month of paid leadership opportunities to a young person on The Link's Youth Advisory Committees
• $500 helps provide a young person with the one-on-one support they need to attend school and work towards graduation
• $1,000 helps provide a deposit for a young parent exiting homelessness with their children  

Let's do something amazing  together again this year!

Thank you so much!
