I am raising funds to open Butterfly Affects Youth Home, a safe place for teens ages 12-18 who are facing trauma and need support. As a survivor of domestic violence and someone who works directly with youth in crisis, I've seen firsthand how badly this type of space is needed in our community. Too many young people are struggling without a safe place to turn, and I want to change that by providing a home where they can feel secure, supported, and understood.

I've already started building this nonprofit from the ground up, dedicating my time and resources to making this vision a reality. Now, I'm seeking support to help bring this dream to life and provide a safe, healing environment for youth. The funds raised will help cover essential costs like housing, counseling services, daily necessities, and creating a nurturing environment where teens can heal and grow. Every dollar will go directly toward building a foundation of hope and stability for these young people.

I chose the name Maya Parks as a symbol of strength, resilience, and purpose—representing the journey from surviving to building something meaningful for others. I'm asking for your support to help me bring this vision to life. Every donation, no matter the amount, will go toward creating a safe, stable, and healing environment for youth who truly need it. If you can give, I appreciate you deeply. If you can't, please share this with someone who can. Together, we can build a place where broken wings learn to fly. I'm taking the next steps to turn this vision into a real, safe home for youth, and your support will help make that possible.
