EPATH MISSION
EPATH is an organization that provides exceptional therapeutic client services to youth in foster care by reuniting families, encouraging healthy decisions and providing a safe environment.

HOW CAN YOU HELP? 
In order to support our mission of reuniting families, encouraging healthy decisions and providing a safe environment, it is important that EPATH has reliable transportation! Your donation will directly impact the lives of young women and children in the California foster care system in a positive way. By providing safe and reliable transportation for the young women of EPATH, you’re ensuring they are able to receive proper and on-time medical care, mental support through therapy, and education. The lack of reliable transportation has been a significant limiting factor in the reach and depth of our programs.

With your help in providing reliable transportation to EPATH, our girls will be able to:
 • Engage in healthy and productive activities; 
 • Engage in educational and economic opportunities;
 • Participate in unique East Palo Alto experiences; and 
 • Connect and re-unite with supportive friends & family

We are asking for your help in the form of a $15 donation for a $3,000 down payment on a reliable source of transportation. Our hope is that we will be able to purchase a vehicle ASAP. 

Thank you so much for your consideration and support! Your contribution will help EPATH support the teens in fulfilling their goals.
