Breaking the Cycle of Youth Homelessness
Our Ark Youth Tiny Homes is an Evergreen Student Entrepreneurship Project. This project is dedicated to build 8 transitional youth tiny homes servicing homeless or at-risk youth in our community ages 18-24.
What is Our Ark Youth Tiny Homes?
Our future transitional community will offer love for refuge, safety, and hope. It is a place to get away from the devastating events that causes growth stunt, physical and mental, of our youth. Our Ark will secure for
growth and independence with a stay of 3/6/12 months. In these secure and safe places, they will receive
access to programs and services ensuring youth learn the necessary skills to thrive and become
independent adults. This approach will encourage youth to seek understanding of and formation of their
own goals.
The activities, work and interventions designed as part of Our Ark are: building trust in our volunteers and service providers, identify and clarify personal goals, and increase capacity for general reflection on life
experiences and on the impact that risk behaviors can have on reaching personal goals.
Homeless youth are in desperate need of loving homes and a secure place to grow and mature. Your help
will put a youth with the right resources that will allow them to thrive in their communities. Your funds will help us build secure homes, storage, baths, showers etc. to a better life for our youth in today's society.
MISSION: No youth is left behind to receive support in a safe environment that encourages maturity and growth in a changing world of chaos and strife by providing a comfortable and warm shelter for the resident as s/he seeks their independence.
We are grateful for your donation to this cause. Housing is most important and the biggest
barrier facing our youth at this moment with the series of event happening in our country. Our youth need us, they need
you.
