Love Changes Lives
At YESS, every meal served, every blanket handed out, and every safe bed offered is a way we show care to youth who need it most.
This February, you can make that love go even further. Your support helps provide comfort, nourishment, and hope to young people experiencing homelessness, instability, or crisis across Edmonton.
Show your love for your community and donate today to help turn care into action. Because when we show love, we change lives.
