Threshold’s SHY Program is currently funded entirely on grants from the corporate sector. Without these grants, the program will close and a number of youth will lose their stable housing units.
How can you help?
Threshold has been entered into the Aviva Community Fund Competition, under the special category of “At-Risk Youth.” The grand prize is $150,000.
