Join our fight to end youth homelessness.
Your gift provides safe housing, therapy, and more at Reid House.
Young people are struggling with mental health and finding stable housing... you can help.
At Sasha Bruce Youthwork, we believe homelessness does not define you; it's a hurdle we can overcome together.
This winter, help us raise $400,000 to support youth transitioning out of homelessness and building a brighter future at programs like Philip Reid House, DC's transitional housing program.
Your donation will provide therapy, safe housing, career support—and also cover the little things many of us take for granted, like warm meals, birthday celebrations, and hot showers.
Your gift will give hope to young people struggling with mental health and finding stable housing. Together, we can make sure no youth faces homelessness alone.
About Sasha Bruce Youthwork (SBY):
SBY envisions a world where homelessness is a distant memory for youth and families. Supporters like you help provide housing, life skills coaching, mental health services, and career readiness. Now in its 50th anniversary year, the organization has more than 25 programs helping 5,000 unstably housed and homeless youth and families annually in the Greater Washington area and Prince George’s County, MD.
Your support made it possible for me to find safety, care, and a chance to move forward at Philip Reid House.
Maya* enjoys the arts and nature. She recently went on her very first trip hiking trip to Great Falls, VA. She is also a young woman who faced challenges in the foster care system. Forced to live in an adult shelter as a teenager, she found herself in a scary environment where she never felt safe. Everything changed when Maya arrived at Philip Reid House, a safe space for youth at Sasha Bruce Youthwork. At Philip Reid House, Maya now has her own room, privacy, and a caring community. With the support of staff and peers, she is working on her goals, learning life skills, and dreaming of a future in theater.
Maya desires the same hope for others. Your donation empowers young people to find stability and build a brighter future. Give today and help transform lives!
