My name is Donnell Pierces, Executive Director of Pierces Youth Network, Inc., a nonprofit youth mentorship and prevention organization serving at-risk youth across Middle Tennessee. We work with youth from Nashville, Gallatin, Lebanon, and Antioch to provide structure, guidance, and positive weekend activities that keep them active, safe, and on the right path.

Our youth have already been feeding the homeless in Downtown Nashville, preparing bag lunches and hygiene kits, attending church, joining mentorship groups, and participating in positive outreach events. PYN is growing fast, and more youth are asking to join every week.

We are raising funds to support all parts of our program, including:

• A 12–15 passenger van for safe transportation

• Weekly feeding-the-homeless outreach (meals, hygiene kits, supplies)

• Youth mentorship & prevention programming (activities, food, materials)

• A safe classroom/meeting space at a local church for sessions and workshops

• Expansion of services to reach more youth this year

Every donation helps us continue offering a safe, structured, and life-changing program for youth who deserve opportunity, guidance, and a positive support system.

Thank you for supporting Pierces Youth Network and believing in our mission to turn potential into power.
