There’s more than one way to support Project YouthBuild.
Your Financial Contribution Supports Our Mission
Project YouthBuild is a nonprofit organization located in North Central Florida. Our mission is to expand opportunities to young people in our community through education, employment and advocacy. We carry out our mission by providing a second chance at a high school diploma, building affordable housing, and developing career ladders and training programs, all to meet the evolving needs of young people in our community.
Your support can:
- Help a young person facing a crisis related to housing, food and health.
- Provide lunch to a youth in need. Helping PYB provide lunch helps students maintain educational focus and decreases absenteeism.
- Help a young person obtain professional clothing for a life-changing job opportunity. Looking professional empowers youth with the self-confidence they need to ace an interview and secure a job.
- Provide entrepreneurship education to a bright mind. Help a young person learn what it takes to launch a business and make it successful for years to come.
- Help a young person with a low income secure gainful employment and a brighter economic future.
All levels of support are welcome!
