Housing Homeless Youth
Hello! This page is in honor of a very special girl's Quinceanera. Her name is Paula and she has requested that people contribute money to Project Nest in honor of her Quince. Project Nest works with homeless youth and once the goal of $9,000 is reached, we will be able to open a supportive home for four amazing young people. Beginning this campaign, we already have $5,000 in the housing fund. If we can raise $4,000 in honor of Paula, we will open the home in June 2012!
Please see www.projectnest.org and our facebook page for more details. Thank you for your support! Below is a message from Paula:
We are very lucky
to have everything that we have. To go to a great school, and have
families that care about us and provide for us. However, many children
in the United States aren't as lucky. About 39% percent of the homeless
population consists of children less than 18 years of age. These kids
often suffer from neglect, and end up dying in the streets. We can help
change this. By giving a homeless child the help he needs, you can help
change his future. Please help give these kids some of the things we
take for granted everyday. Thank You to everyone who donated, and see
you May 26th.
Love, Paula
