Why give?

  • ✽

    A night of shelter can make all the difference for a child who needs a safe place to stay.

  • ✽

    Moving off their friend’s couch and into a safe, stable living arrangement can help a teen increase their likelihood of finishing their education.

  • ✽

    A chance at independent living with real support systems in place is a dream for many of our TLP residents.

  • ✽

    Counseling and rehabilitation skill services could mean that a child in school is better prepared to be successful in the classroom.

  • ✽

    Getting the chance to beat their addiction early could mean a young adult gets clean and stays that way.

  • ✽

    Whether your problem is big or small, sometimes having a helping hand guide you can mean you’re back on the right track.

"I first fell in love with YFS when I learned about their emergency youth shelter - but they do so much more. YFS cares for and empowers our community. Their programs guide people facing tremendous struggle and hardship to get back on track. YFS is the hidden foundation upon which NW Oklahoma is built."
