The Nevada Youth Empowerment Project (NYEP) is the only nonprofit organization in Nevada, based in Reno, that is 100% dedicated to serving housing, life skills, and support to young women transitioning from homelessness into independent adulthood. We create a safe, structured, and empowering environment where residents can grow into strong, capable members in the community.
Here's a Tour of our home:
Right now, NYEP is facing a major plumbing crisis. Years of rot, tree roots, and recent road work have collapsed our piping system, threatening the viability of the home. For the past two weeks, our sewer has continued to back up into the house, preventing the residents from using the water.
The repair project will cost $27,278, which is far beyond our current resources. NDI Plumbing will do the repair. NYEP is dedicated to helping young women succeed, and every dollar we receive typically goes directly to resident support programs. An unexpected expense of this size puts a huge strain on our operations.
We are asking our community, supporters, and anyone who believes in creating safe housing for young women to come together and help us overcome this challenge.
Your support will:
- Ensure our residents have safe, functioning plumbing.
- Prevent future damage that could increase costs.
- Allow us to continue focusing on what matters most: empowering young women to build strong, independent futures.
No amount is too small; every contribution will help us get one step closer to repairing our plumbing and protecting our home.
Ways to Help:
- Donate directly through this GoFundMe.
- Sponsor the entire amount. You can even pay NDI Plumbing directly.
- Share this page with your network to spread the word.
- If you own or know a local business that might be willing to support, please connect them with us.
On behalf of all of us at NYEP, thank you for your caring attention, generosity, and support during this urgent and difficult time.
