🎉 HE'S SIGNING HIS VERY FIRST LEASE! 🏡

This Friday is a day worth celebrating!
After months of working alongside his CCYT specialist to reach his housing goals, a 21-year-old young adult in our program will officially sign the lease for his very first apartment. Since May, he has been unsheltered, but because of his determination and hard work, he's ready to start this exciting new chapter.

Now we have one more goal: Let's help turn his apartment into a home. ❤️
He's starting completely from scratch and is in need of just about everything, including:
🛏️ Bed & mattress
🛋️ Furniture
🛏️ Bedding & pillows
🍽️ Kitchen essentials (dishes, cookware, utensils, etc.)
🚿 Shower curtain & bath towels
💡 Household essentials
…and anything else that helps make a first apartment feel like home!

If you have new or gently used items you'd like to donate, or would like to purchase something to help him get started, we'd love to hear from you.
